About the Item

A Finnish mid-century chandelier by Sievä, crafted in the 1950s. The lamp features three handblown cream-white opaline glass shades, each mounted on gracefully curved brass arms. The brass structure has a warm aged patina that highlights its vintage character, while the softly rounded glass shades create a diffused and inviting light. Sievä was one of the smaller Finnish lighting manufacturers active during the mid-20th century, producing quality lamps that combined functionality with decorative detailing. This chandelier reflects the Nordic modernist approach of the 1950s — pared back but still expressive, with natural materials and organic forms defining the design language. The chandelier’s balanced proportions make it versatile: well-suited for a dining area, living room, or as an elegant accent in a smaller space. Its timeless mix of brass and handblown opaline glass brings both warmth and refinement to an interior. • Height 75 cm (29.5") • Ø 45 cm (17.7") • Brass, handblown opaline glass • Manufacturer: Sievä • Period: 1950s • Made in Finland • Good vintage condition, with natural patina on brass ABOUT THE MANUFACTURER Sievä was a Finnish lighting manufacturer active during the post-war decades, known for producing high-quality lighting fixtures in brass and glass. While less internationally recognized than contemporaries like Itsu or Idman, Sievä’s lamps remain valued examples of Finnish mid-century design. Their pieces often feature simple forms with decorative touches, bridging functional modernism and the more ornate traditions of Nordic craftsmanship.
