Mid-Century Modern Idman Ceiling Lamp Model K1-15, Maria Lindemann, 1950s

About the Item

A Mid-Century Modern ceiling lamp model K1-88 by Maria Lindemann for Idman. This model combines modernism with the classical style of crystal chandeliers making it suitable for both modern and classical interiors. The Idman catalogue has it with a different glass shade (model 2143) but this one is with shade model 1493. The chandelier brass body is in its original condition and lacqeur, some of the wires holding the crystals are updated so is the ceiling bracket holding the lamp. The canopy is stamped Idman. Maria Lindemann graduated from the design school "Taideteollisuuskeskuskoulu", now known as the Aalto University School of Arts, Design, and Architecture just when the second world ended. In 1953 Lindemann took part in a competition of lighting fixtures, announced by the Idman company, which resulted in a full-time job as an artistic designer. Idman became the leading light manufacturers in Finland that then acquired Taito just around that same time. Lindeman’s designs varied from modern to classical designs. During the 1950s and 1960s, Lindeman became one of the voices in constructing Finnish modernism, and a participating member in the formulation of the Golden Age of Finnish design.
