Paavo Tynell Chandelier with Snowflakes EARLY Model 9065

About the Item

Made circa 1950. This beautiful and rare Paavo Tynell chandelier is a timeless midcentury feat of design. Best known for his impeccable lighting fixtures and lamps, Tynell was a master craftsman that made elegant forms from brass and was known as “the man who illuminated Finland.” He found great success in Europe and abroad making notable works throughout the United States such as his lighting design for the UN Secretary General’s office in New York. A groundbreaking blend of traditional aesthetic with a modern awareness, this chandelier casts warm light through an intricately perforated brass bowl, expertly illuminating the handcut suspended snowflakes and creating an entrancing ambiance. Pavo Tynell: Chasing Light beautifully details Pavo's career and his influential force on lighting design in the twentieth century. Most of these Chandeliers were specially made to order and not common in the open retail market. Much scholarship is currently being done on his genius and these fixtures are quickly going up in value as collectors learn more about their scarcity and design importance. Much AS Louis Comfort Tiffany transformed the decorative lighting landscape in the early twentieth century, Pavo has grabbed that baton in the mid-century realm.
