Monumental & Rare Table Lamp by Architect Eino Schroderus, Koru Oy Finland 1920s
-
Description
An exceptional and very rare table lamp designed by architect Eino Schroderus and manufactured by Taidetakomo Koru Oy. This sizable lamp stands approximately 70 cm tall and features a round brass base with a reeded brass stem supporting a white opaline half-globe glass shade. It includes two light sources and is stamped by the manufacturer on the underside.
Several design elements of this lamp, such as the reeded stem, glass shade, and circular detailing along the base, were later adopted by Paavo Tynell in his early works. Tynell, who was taught and mentored by Schroderus, began his career as a metalworker and lamp maker at Koru Oy, where he created his very first lamp. A comparison photo is included to illustrate the size alongside a Tynell lamp, and an archival image from the Design Museum showcases a similar example.
The lamp is in very good condition, having been carefully polished, with the rim securing the glass shade restored due to prior bending.
Eino Schroderus (1879–1942) was a Finnish architect and designer, known for his contributions to early 20th-century Finnish design and metalwork. A key figure in the Finnish Arts and Crafts movement, he co-founded Taidetakomo Koru Oy, a workshop that played a pivotal role in developing Finnish decorative arts. Schroderus also mentored Paavo Tynell, helping shape the future of Scandinavian lighting design. His work reflects a blend of functionalism and refined craftsmanship, leaving a lasting legacy in Finnish design history. - More Information
