About the Item

🌿 Background of the Itsu Table Lamp • Manufacturer: Itsu (a Finnish lighting company active in the 1950s–1960s). • Designers: Often attributed to Mauri Almari, though influences from Paavo Tynell and Tapio Wirkkala are visible. • Era: Produced mainly in the 1950s–1960s, during the rise of Finnish design internationally. ✨ Design and Materials • Base/Frame: Brass or painted metal, giving durability and elegance. • Shade: Perforated or slatted metal shade that diffuses light softly and creates decorative patterns. • Color: The rare green slatted shade makes the lamp stand out — green adds a calming, nature-inspired atmosphere. • Size: For example, the Itsu EV70 model is about 42 cm tall, suitable for table or wall use. 🪔 Use and Atmosphere • Light quality: The slatted shade filters light to avoid glare while producing a warm, patterned glow. • Placement: Perfect for living rooms, desks, or bedrooms as an ambient lamp. • Interior style: Blends beautifully with both vintage and modern interiors. 💎 Value and Collectability • Rarity: Itsu lamps are sought-after collectibles, especially with unusual shades like the green slatted version. • Price range: In vintage shops and auctions, prices can range from hundreds to several thousand euros, depending on model and condition. • Example: A pair of Itsu table lamps has been listed for around €2,900 in design shops. 🎨 Why the Green Slatted Shade is Special • Green was not the most common color in Itsu lamps, making it visually distinctive and prized by collectors. • The slatted construction creates geometric, rhythmic light patterns, adding artistic flair to a room. • The combination of brass and green metal is timelessly elegant yet modern. Summary: The Itsu table lamp with a green slatted shade is a Finnish design classic, combining mid-century aesthetics, fine materials, and atmospheric lighting. It is both a functional object and a collectible treasure that adds sophistication and personality to any space.
