A uke gets better with age as the wood changes with age.
Guns shoot better as more bullets pass through the barrel.
And in this case the shells in an old lamp don't have that pristine
white look that says "I was made a few days ago".
The tapa can also look like it's too new, same with the bamboo.

Have been to some new tiki bars that just look too new, for me they need
that lived in look.
Not many people can replicate that old time look well.
For me that makes all the difference, This is why I don't get too
worked up over new tiki bars.
Would rather just go to some other old restaurant.
