About the Item

Hand-painted Scandinavian Modern pendant, designed by Gunnel Nyman, manufactured by Idman Oy, 1940s. Aspen wood slat shade, hand-painted glass by Kauklahden Lasitehdas, brass and metal details. Good vintage condition, patina consistent with age and use. Gunnel Nyman was a Finnish designer best known for her pioneering work in glass design during the 1930s and 1940s. Working closely with Nuutajärvi Glassworks, she helped define the soft, organic aesthetic that became a hallmark of Finnish modernism. Nyman's lighting designs reflect the same qualities found in her glasswork: elegant forms, careful attention to light, and exceptional craftsmanship. Her fixtures often combine functional simplicity with sculptural beauty, creating a warm and refined atmosphere. Today, Gunnel Nyman's designs are highly sought after by collectors and remain important examples of early Scandinavian modern design.
