A rare white pendant designed by Paavo Tynell and produced by Idman in 1955. The model number is K2-10/ N-9241. The conical shade is made of a white matte opal glass, resulting in a soft and diffused light. The white painted metal ring appears to float around the conical shade. The asterisk/star shaped perforations in the metal ring give the lamp a particularly striking lantern-like effect. The design is completed by a decorative spiraled brass ornament. The lamp has its original brass ceiling cup and a drop down cable, which can be replaced or shortened if another height is required.
The lamp is in very good, original and fully working condition.
