About the Item

Helena Tynell Bubble pendant light by Glashütte Limburg Germany 1960. Mounting in brass, shade of amber glass, adjustable height approximately 40 cm without the cord. Good vintage condition. Helena Tynell was a notable Finnish glass designer described as a pioneer of Finnish glass art. She started her career in 1943 designing for Arabia, a leading Finnish housewares and ceramics manufacturer. She also worked for Taito (designers), a design bureau part-owned by her future husband and fellow designer, Paavo Tynell. In 1946, having decided to focus exclusively on glass, Tynell left Arabia to join a major Finnish glass manufacturer of the time, Riihimäki Glass, where she stayed for most of her career, and created many of her most notable designs. In 1976, she moved to Germany, to design for Glashütte Limburg, among others, until her retirement in the early 1990s. She was interested in glass sculpture, experimenting with abstract forms, and other artistic pursuits, using both casting and blowing as well as other techniques. She exhibited extensively in Finland and internationally. Her works are included in the permanent collections of the Design Museum, Helsinki, the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, and the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, NY, USA.
