Brass Table Lamp by Eino Schroderus, Finland First half of the 20th Century

Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
Finnish designer Eino Schroderus worked within the early wave of Finnish modernism, where the focus rested on clarity, proportion, and honest materials. He founded the company Taidetakomo Koru, finding himself among the metal-smiths who shaped the Finnish modern identity, bringing a quiet refinement to functional objects. This brass table lamp by Finnish designer Eino Schroderus has a quietly refined presence that feels both early-modern and unmistakably Nordic.

This table lamp is a clear expression of an approach to design that withstands the test of time. The structure rises from a round base into three slender brass rods that give the lamp a graceful vertical rhythm. The material has a warm tone that reads both clean and soft, as the surface develops a charming patina over the years. The shade’s tapering shape completes the composition, giving a grounded proportion to the gentle stem. The lamp design reveals how well Schroderus understood the relationship between material and illumination. Every line is intentional, and the balance between the solid base, the open central structure, and the fabric shade creates a sense of calm, confident presence.

As a whole, the lamp delivers exactly the qualities most sought-out in early Finnish modern design: craftsmanship, clarity, and a quiet but memorable character. This piece shows why Schroderus’ works are valued to this day. It fits in both traditional and contemporary interiors and has the kind of understated elegance that enhances a space.
