I was really curious about this lamp and what makes it special, so I did some more research. Seems like you could get it online for about $10k. The lighting is supposed to replicate the softer glow from a gas lamp using an electric light bulb, emitting light without any glare. Originally for a Danish restaurant around 1960, it was one of the first lamps that completely concealed the light source itself, the bulb, from people looking at it.
