About the Item

This model “ER 112/3” lamp was designed during the mid 20th century, an era in which Finland saw the birth of many of its most iconic lighting models. Design-wise, it was a period of consistency, excellence, and sophistication. Itsu, short for Itä-Suomen Sähkö (eng. Eastern Finland Electricity), was a small, (then) lesser-known manufactory that produced characteristic models in small quantities inspired mainly by Paavo Tynell. By the 1950s, Finland had established itself as a force for innovation in design. The best qualities of Finnish light fixtures’ are their atmospheric light and disciplined, functionalist structure that is not short of subtle decorative elements. This model shares the characteristic perforated shade holders as the brass chandelier models designed by Mauri Almari for Itsu. The vertical hollow lines enhance the shape of the shade holders and also serve as one of the main decorative elements of the design. The three symmetrically arranged arms each hold an opal glass shade in a classic bell shape. Cleverly, the shade holders mirror their shape to create a balanced look. This model utilizes the mid-century era’s popular combination of brass and glass; the elongated bell shape of the shades shows off the opal glass and the play of shadows it creates when the light is lit. Accentuating these shapes is the polished brass that features a nice patina. Overall, the composition of the shapes and clever decorative elements give this lamp a personality that isn’t loud but still stands out, which is an essentially Finnish design virtue. The refined work and unique work of Finnish lighting designers has made their creations increasingly valued by collectors in the know. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. Dimensions: 13.78 in Ø x 19.88 in H 35 cm Ø x 50.5 cm H

Model "ER 77/3" Chandelier with Floral Details for Itsu, Finland 1950s

By Itsu

Located in Utrecht, NL

By the 1950s, Finland had established itself as a force for innovation in design. The best qualities of Finnish light fixtures are their atmospheric light and disciplined, functionalist design that is not short of unique decorative elements. This lamp was manufactured by Itsu, or Itä-Suomen Sähkö (eng. Eastern Finland Electricity), a small, then lesser-known manufacturer that produced characteristic models in small quantities, mainly inspired by Paavo Tynell. With its nature-inspired organic look, this chandelier is reminiscent of Finnish icons Paavo Tynell and Mauri Almari’s design language. Crafted from brass, this chandelier features a delicate frame that has been expertly designed to showcase the three opal glass shades and the curved arms. The glass shades have a milky appearance that diffuses the light beautifully, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere in any room. One of the defining features of mid-century lighting is its marriage of functionality and aesthetics; the era's designers believed that a well-designed lighting fixture could serve a practical purpose while also acting as a piece of art. This chandelier is without a doubt a piece of art, thanks to the delicate floral details. Stemming from the base, resembling a bouquet, these floral elements are sculpted beautifully, with a realistic appearance that is a testament to the manufacturer’s expert skills. This floral decoration is reminiscent of Finnish designer Paavo Tynell’s work. Itsu merged with Idman Oy in the 1950s, a large manufacturer who owned Taito, the company founded by Paavo Tynell. Thus, designs from Itsu of that time period bear some resemblance with the signature style of Tynell...
