Paavo Tynell Furniture
Finnish, 1890-1973
Paavo Tynell, who was born in Helsinki, Finland in 1890, started his career as a tin- and blacksmith at the company Kory Oy. Simultaneously, he studied at the Helsinki University of Industrial Arts, from which he graduated as a master craftsman in 1913. In 1918, Tynell co-founded the metalwork and lighting company Oy Taito Ab. At first, the company focused mostly on interior and exterior metalwork, such as statues and railings. Later, during the 1930s, Taito also began producing lamps for the lighting sector. Both Alvar Aalto and Kaj Franck would design works for the company.

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.
