For me, one of the aspects of a pool table that isn’t tiki, is the over table lamp. Billiard lamps tend to be tacky beer swag or ornamental leaded glass. Definitely not tiki. So my solution, build your own. Yup, I’m an idiot. Anyway I saw a picture on the internet of a lamp made of rattan, heck I could do that. So armed with a router, rotozip and a glue gun I built and wired a triple lamp frame out of bamboo. I’m not sure I would get UL certification but I don’t think the Professor could do better for the Howell’s. Once the frame was built I used bamboo Chinese boatman hats as shades…. Voila….
