About the Item
An exceptional and very rare table lamp designed by architect Eino Schroderus and manufactured by Taidetakomo Koru Oy. This sizable lamp stands approximately 70 cm tall and features a round brass base with a reeded brass stem supporting a white opaline half-globe glass shade. It includes two light sources and is stamped by the manufacturer on the underside.
Several design elements of this lamp, such as the reeded stem, glass shade, and circular detailing along the base, were later adopted by Paavo Tynell in his early works. Tynell, who was taught and mentored by Schroderus, began his career as a metalworker and lamp maker at Koru Oy, where he created his very first lamp. A comparison photo is included to illustrate the size alongside a Tynell lamp, and an archival image from the Design Museum showcases a similar example.
The lamp is in very good condition, having been carefully polished, with the rim securing the glass shade restored due to prior bending.
Eino Schroderus (1879–1942) was a Finnish architect and designer, known for his contributions to early 20th-century Finnish design and metalwork. A key figure in the Finnish Arts and Crafts movement, he co-founded Taidetakomo Koru Oy, a workshop that played a pivotal role in developing Finnish decorative arts. Schroderus also mentored Paavo Tynell, helping shape the future of Scandinavian lighting design. His work reflects a blend of functionalism and refined craftsmanship, leaving a lasting legacy in Finnish design history.

Kai Ruokonen 'Finnmark' Table Lamp, Full Brass with Stunning Patina, Orno 1970s
By Orno Oy
Located in Helsinki, FI
An iconic Scandinavian design lamp designed by Kai Ruokonen "Finnmark" and manufactured by Orno Oy in the 1970s for the Vaakuna Hotel in Helsinki, Finland. The same model was also used later in the Palace Hotel Helsinki. A very simple yet elegant heavy duty lamp in full brass with a beautiful patina. There is something magical about the coldness of brass and the warmth of the light filtering through the shade. The condition is consistent with age, showing some signs of normal use, but the overall impression is very good and the Patina is absolutely gorgeous. Marked by Manufacturer "Orno Oy".
