About the Item
A large and visually striking flush-mount ceiling light model K5-25 produced by Idman Oy in Finland during the 1950s. The generously scaled shade features a sculptural, pleated form that sits close to the ceiling, creating a soft halo effect when illuminated. The warm-toned synthetic textile diffuser produces an atmospheric, indirect light while highlighting the lamp’s elegant radial structure.
This model is particularly impressive in its size and is well suited for larger spaces such as living rooms, dining areas, or public interiors. The brass center fitting adds a refined contrast to the textile shade, reflecting the high-quality materials and craftsmanship characteristic of Finnish mid-century lighting.
