About the Item

A charming 1950s Finnish ceiling lamp featuring three cream beige glass shades, embodying the elegant simplicity of mid-century Scandinavian design. While reminiscent of Paavo Tynell's iconic fixtures, this piece represents the more accessible lighting options that flourished during Finland's postwar design boom - created for those who admired Tynell's aesthetic but sought more affordable alternatives. The lamp model was one offered by Stockmann, Helsinki's legendary department store that served as the premier retailer for all major Finnish lighting manufacturers including Orno, Taito, and Idman. In excellent vintage condition, the lamp retains all its original components including the beautiful brass decorative elements characteristic of 1950s Finnish design. The three gracefully curved glass shades maintain their soft opaline colour and mimic flowering buds. The brass parts show a pleasing patina that speaks to its age and authenticity. A wonderful example of Mid century Finnish design that made quality lighting accessible to a wider audience while maintaining the aesthetic standards of the golden age of Scandinavian modernism.

Mid-Century Finnish Design Lamp in Brass and Glass, 1950s
Located in Helsinki, FI
A 1950s Finnish design ceiling lamp at its best. This lamp has some striking similarities to Paavo Tynell lighting fixtures, but not everyone could afford Tynells, even back then. There are enough similar lamps to this one in the 1950s Stockmann/Orno catalogues so that we can almost attribute this lamp to them. The Stockmann department store sold all lamp manufacturers lamps back then including Orno, Taito, Idman, Itsu and so on. This lamp is in good vintage condition. It has 3 light points with honeycomb...
