THIS CHARACTERFUL WALL LAMP WAS DESIGNED BY HANS-AGNE JAKOBSSON AND PRODUCED BY HIS COMPANY, HANS-AGNE JAKOBSSON AB MARKARYD, IN SWEDEN DURING THE 1960S. THE DESIGN BEAUTIFULLY REFLECTS JAKOBSSON’S DISTINCTIVE APPROACH TO SCANDINAVIAN LIGHTING, COMBINING NATURAL MATERIALS, SCULPTURAL FORM AND A WARM, ATMOSPHERIC QUALITY OF LIGHT.

THE SHADE IS A RARE MODEL AND CONSTRUCTED FROM A SERIES OF OVERLAPPING, CONICALLY ARRANGED BANDS OF PINE VENEER, HELD TOGETHER BY SLENDER VERTICAL WOODEN SUPPORTS. THE LAYERED CONSTRUCTION FILTERS THE LIGHT THROUGH THE OPENINGS BETWEEN THE VENEER BANDS, CREATING A SOFT AND DECORATIVE GLOW WHILE BEAUTIFULLY EMPHASISING THE NATURAL GRAIN AND WARM COLOUR OF THE WOOD. THE SHADE IS MOUNTED ON A SIMPLE, GEOMETRIC PINE WALL BRACKET THAT COMPLEMENTS ITS ORGANIC APPEARANCE.

THE LAMP REMAINS IN VERY GOOD VINTAGE CONDITION, WITH AGE-RELATED TRACES OF USE CONSISTENT WITH ITS AGE. THESE INCLUDE SOME VERY MINOR MARKS, AS VISIBLE IN THE PHOTOGRAPHS. A DISTINCTIVE AND HIGHLY DECORATIVE EXAMPLE OF SWEDISH MID-CENTURY LIGHTING, PERFECT FOR CREATING A WARM AND INVITING ATMOSPHERE IN A LIVING ROOM, BEDROOM, HALLWAY OR READING CORNER.
