Parisian design label [Moustache](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/extra-bold-armchair) created a lamp for French national railway service SNCF. To celebrate the new light, Moustache dropped a series of promotional videos featuring [furry characters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snoopy-lamp) to showcase the new lamps that are readily available for purchase. The lights were developed by Ionna Vautrin, and feature a tall stem foundation with two lights on each side. The original model was first created for passenger cars by Saguez & Partners in 2016, and now Moustache reworked its form to be suited for home environments.

The newest iteration made its debut earlier this month at Milan Design Week at [Spazio Rossana Orlandi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/room-as-instrument). Moustache claims that it is the first piece ever created for a French train that has been adapted to be suitable for domestic use. The lights sit on a cylindrical base and the two round lights on top of the stem form a "T" shape. The body of the lamp is constructed from aluminum and is available in either white, khaki, blue, anthracite or red.
