Paavo Tynell for Idman ‘5061’ Table Lamp in Brass
About the Item
Paavo Tynell for Idman, table lamp, model ‘5061’, brass, Finland, circa 1950
A truly magnificent piece that scores highly on every design aspect: execution, use of materials, craftsmanship, and detail. Paavo Tynell, the master in the fields of lighting, created the '5061' table desk lamp around 1950. An imaginative mushroom-shaped shade is adorned with subtle round perforations through which the light shines, creating an optical shimmering effect. A round base supports the stem that gradually widens towards the top. With regard to its essential form and material use, this lighting object is a testimony to the Golden Age of Scandinavian design. This design is certainly a work of art in its own right.
Finnish designer Paavo Tynell (1890-1973) began his career as a blacksmith. After studying to become a master craftsman at the University of Art and Design in Helsinki, he founded his own manufacturing company named Taito Oy. During his career, he collaborated with fellow Finnish designers and architects such as Alvar Aalto. Their collaboration proved to be very fruitful and achieved Tynell’s reputation of “the man who illuminated Finland.” Tynell’s international design influence grew thanks to the Finland House located in New York and allowed him to see himself trusted with prestigious orders both for public buildings such as the UN but also for important private collections. Based on existing models, custom versions were ordered by the Finnish upper-class. Tynell's designs are characterized by organic forms and the use of perforated brass in combination with unusual materials for lighting such as straw and cane.

Paavo Tynell
Paavo Tynell, who was born in Helsinki, Finland in 1890, started his career as a tin- and blacksmith at the company Kory Oy. Simultaneously, he studied at the Helsinki University of Industrial Arts, from which he graduated as a master craftsman in 1913. In 1918, Tynell co-founded the metalwork and lighting company Oy Taito Ab. At first, the company focused mostly on interior and exterior metalwork, such as statues and railings. Later, during the 1930s, Taito also began producing lamps for the lighting sector. Both Alvar Aalto and Kaj Franck would design works for the company.
