Unique pair of Paavo Tynell / Paul Boman floor lamps, Taito / Boman

About the Item

A beautiful pair of commissioned floor lamps by Paul Boman from Paavo Tynell for the United Paper Mills (Yhtyneet paperitehtaat) club house in Jämsänkoski. P. Boman / Oy Taito Ab, c. late 1940s. We acquired these lamps directly from the club house. As these lamps were commissioned for a more classic and formal place, the overall design was reflective of the settings. The lamp legs were made of wood rather than the usual brass-rattan combination. The middle part retained the Tynell hallmark brass switch "box" and is lit by 3 lamps and finally the upper part also reminds us of the Tynell classic Chinese hat lamps, but with a more formal twist. A beautiful unique pair that suits formal spaces, reading rooms and libraries, or any interior with a classic vibe. The United Paper Mills was an important company in Finnish industrial history that helped build and shape industrial towns around Finland. The Jämsänkoski deputy's manor house that was turned into the company's club house, to where these lamps were commissioned, hosted endless important meetings and parties and accommodated many prominent state visitors such as Princess Ann and the former First Secretary and Premier of the Soviet Union Nikita Khrushcev and Nikolai Bulganin who stayed in the Mansion and almost certainly had a few drinks next to these floors lamps in 1957. It is also worth mentioning that Paul Boman was the only Finnish cabinet maker / company that was granted the Swedish Royal Purveyor to the court title as seen on the Boman stamp on the bottom. Both lamps are stamped Oy Taito Ab. We have other options for rattan shades if the client so desires.
