About the Item

Maria Lindeman was an active figure in Finland’s mid-20th-century design landscape, most known for her work as a designer for Idman, the biggest Finish lighting manufacturer at that time. She contributed to the country’s reputation for refined, modern forms grounded in material honesty. Her work aligned with the broader Scandinavian ethos of functional beauty, favouring minimal ornamentation and a quiet, sculptural presence. This pair of table lamps exemplifies that sensibility in a distinctly elegant and understated way. Each lamp features a conical body made from dark wood, offering both visual weight and stability. The lamps rest on a wider metal base which on one hand ensures durability, on the other hand bringing visual interest to the model. The shape of the bodies is clean and symmetrical, with a taper that guides the eye upward toward the elliptical shades covered in a neutral-toned fabric. The shades, through their oval shape, stray from the classic drum shade, giving them an asymmetrical look that plays with perspective. The juxtaposition of the conical base and the oval shade introduces a dynamic balance, while the natural texture of the wood and fabric softens the overall composition. These proportions and materials reflect a deep understanding of how light interacts with form, which was central to Finnish lighting design of the period. With their harmonious geometry and natural palette, this pair brings subtle sophistication to any interior. Whether placed on a console, desk, or bedside table, they embody the warm, modest an timeless Nordic approach to lighting. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The lamps have recently been rewired. The shades are a later replacement. Dimensions: 15.94 in W x 10.23 in D x 17.51 in H 40.5 cm W x 26 cm D x 44.5 cm H
