Overall the piece is in good vintage condition. The white finish to the inside of the shade and the warm patina to the brass decoration are as found, with minor signs of age and use as one might expect.

The Idman stamp appears at the top of the shade. Wiring: As the light is old, and wiring may have been replaced in the past; we advise the wiring is tested and/or replaced in the country of install to ensure it meets your local needs.

Twin Ceiling Lamp by Alvar Aalto, Made by Idman, Finland
By Alvar Aalto, Idman Oy
Located in London, GB
A simple architectural piece comprising twin ceiling lights on a single back plate, designed by Alvar Aalto and stamped by the Finnish manufacturer Idman. Overall the fixture is in fair vintage condition with lots of signs of wear from age and use - scratches, dents, dust and fading - all left as found. See images for examples of details and overview, or contact us if you would like more information. Wiring: The original wiring has been partially removed, and will need to be replaced prior to install. The original bulb-holders took E27 screw-fitting bulbs; as with all vintage pieces we recommend the use of low heat bulbs to protect the fixture for the future. There are two holes on the plate for installation (fixings not included). The diffusers simply rest in place, and can be removed for shipping. This design is believed to have been created for the Enso-Gutzeit headquarters in Helsinki, which was designed by Aalto and completed in 1962. Idman Oy were a manufacturer of high quality lighting by designers...
