About the Item

Refined mid-century brass and opaline glass chandelier by Itsu (Itä-Suomen Sähkö), Finland, 1950s. The chandelier features five softly curved opaline glass tulip shades supported by elegantly arched brass arms, creating a balanced interplay of organic form and warm metallic luster. The gently fluted edges of the shades enhance its floral expression, giving the piece a sculptural quality that recalls the poetic lighting designs of Paavo Tynell. A fine example of post-war Finnish modernism, this chandelier combines craftsmanship and delicacy in equal measure—ideal for both period interiors and contemporary spaces seeking a touch of timeless elegance. • Manufacturer: Itsu (Itä-Suomen Sähkö) • Origin: Finland • Period: 1950s • Materials: Brass, hand-blown opaline glass • Dimensions: Height 58 cm (22.8 in), Diameter approx. 50 cm (19.7 in) • Condition: Very good vintage condition, light patina consistent with age and use ABOUT THE MANUFACTURER Itsu (Itä-Suomen Sähkö) was one of Finland’s notable lighting manufacturers during the mid-20th century, known for producing high-quality fixtures in brass and glass. Based in Eastern Finland, the company embraced the ideals of Finnish modernism — clarity, craftsmanship, and natural materials. Itsu’s designs often reflected the same refined balance of ornament and restraint seen in the work of Paavo Tynell, contributing to the enduring reputation of Finnish lighting design.
