1950s Mauri Almari 3-Shade Cascading Chandelier for Idman Oy Finland

Creator: Idman Oy -Mauri Almari
Offered by: Two Enlighten Los Angeles, LLC

Description
1950s Mauri Almari cascading chandelier for Idman Oy Finland. A rare example executed in black painted and perforated metal with the original brass canopy that has been modified for mounting over a standard American juncture box. Highly reminiscent of Paavo Tynell's iconic designs for Taito Oy. An incredibly refined design that is quintessentially Finnish.

A contemporary of Paavo Tynell, the inspired work of Mauri Almari has made him an increasingly valued midcentury Finnish designer by collectors in the know.

New black paint and cloth cord. Some scuffs, dings, bends, losses and patination as largely shown and noted only for accuracy.
