About the Item

Table lamp, designed by Tapio Wirkkala, 1950s. Modified from the Väre- vase (model 3500). Blown glass. Wood shade. Good vintage condition, minor patina consistent with age and use. Tapio Veli Ilmari Wirkkala was a Finnish designer and sculptor. Wirkkala is considered a leading figure in the modern Finnish art industry. The post-war golden age of the Finnish art industry up to the 1960s has been called the 'Wirkkala period'. Wirkkala designed several classic objects, such as the Kantarelli vase. The glassware that Wirkkala designed for Iittala has become particularly famous. Perhaps the most popular of these is the Ultima Thule series. Wirkkala was a multiple winner of the Milan Triennale.
