Kai Ruokonen 'Finnmark' Table Lamp in Full Brass, Orno 1970s
-
Description
An iconic Scandinavian design lamp "Finnmark", designed by Kai Ruokonen and manufactured by Orno oy in the 1970s for the Vaakuna Hotel in Helsinki, Finland. The same model was also used later in the Palace Hotel Helsinki. A very simple yet elegant heavy duty lamp in full brass with a beautiful patina. There is something magical about the coldness of brass and the warmth of the light filtering through the shade. The condition is consistent with age, showing some sings of normal use and wear, but the overall impression is very good. Marked by Manufacturer "Orno Oy".
