Interior of the passenger liner 'Omrah' (1899) showing the Baroque-style First Class Dining Saloon, on the Upper Deck; a view from the starboard side, looking towards the organ at the forward end.
The swivel chairs were bolted to the floor to avoid movement during rough weather; they were a standard feature of ships’ restaurants until the First World War.
