B-303 LARGE SIZE UMBRELLA TABLE LAMP BY HANS-AGNE JAKOBSSON FOR MARKARYD AB, SWEDEN 1960s
RARE LARGE-SIZE B-303 UMBRELLA TABLE LAMP BY HANS-AGNE JAKOBSSON FOR MARKARYD AB, SWEDEN, 1960S
RARE LARGE-SIZE B-303 TABLE LAMP, DESIGNED BY HANS-AGNE JAKOBSSON FOR MARKARYD AB DURING THE 1960S. THE TALL TAPERED BASE AND WIDE, UMBRELLA-SHAPED SHADE GIVE THE LAMP AN IMPRESSIVE, SCULPTURAL SILHOUETTE. ENTIRELY EXECUTED IN WHITE-LACQUERED METAL, THE DESIGN HAS A CLEAN AND TIMELESS SCANDINAVIAN APPEARANCE.
THE SHADE CONSISTS OF THREE OVERLAPPING CONICAL ELEMENTS. THE NARROW OPENINGS BETWEEN THESE LAYERS ALLOW WARM LIGHT TO FILTER THROUGH, EMPHASISING THE LAMP’S GRAPHIC CONSTRUCTION. THE BROAD LOWER SHADE DIRECTS A SOFT, ATMOSPHERIC LIGHT DOWNWARDS, MAKING THIS STRIKING PIECE BOTH DECORATIVE AND FUNCTIONAL.
THE LAMP IS IN VERY GOOD VINTAGE CONDITION, WITH ONLY A FEW SMALL SCRATCHES AND MINOR TRACES OF WEAR CONSISTENT WITH ITS AGE. THE ORIGINAL MANUFACTURER’S LABEL IS STILL PRESENT. THE B-303 IS A RARELY SEEN MODEL, PARTICULARLY IN THIS IMPRESSIVE LARGE-SIZE VERSION.
