1950s Mauri Almari White Perforated Diabolo Pendant for Idman Oy Finland

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

Description
1950s Mauri Almari White Perforated Diabolo Pendant for Idman Oy Finland. Executed in white painted and perforated metal with black cloth cord and custom fabricated period style brass canopy for mounting over a standard American j-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 knowledgeable collectors of fine lighting. Metal pendant measures 12.5 inches in height x 4.5 inches in diameter with approximately 55 inches of cloth cord that can be cut to desired height.

Rewired for 75w max medium base bulb (lower with incandescent). New paint, sockets, cloth cord and canopy. Not UL listed, but recommended UL listing possible from authorized 3rd party vendor upon request for an additional fee. Some scuffs, dings, bends, losses and patination as largely shown and noted only for accuracy.
