Creator: Hans-Agne Jakobsson -Hans-Agne Jakobsson AB
Offered by: H. Gallery

Description
Hans-Agne Jakobsson, a renowned Swedish lighting designer, became a pivotal figure in mid-20th-century Scandinavian design. He founded his eponymous company, Hans-Agne Jakobsson AB, in the small town of Markaryd in the 1950s. His design philosophy pivoted on merging form and function, a philosophy that would soon permeate the ethos of Swedish mid-century design. The company quickly gained prominence for its commitment to craftsmanship and an unwavering dedication to quality materials.

The floor lamp “S-1871” exemplifies Jakobsson's design prowess, showcasing his ability to create functional art. The lamp features a tall, slender black metal stem that provides a delicate yet sturdy structure. The round black base supports the elegant vertical lines of the stem, contributing to a balanced, honest design. Towards the top of the model, the black metal meets the golden, honey-like brass, which adds a touch of warmth and 20th century charm to the piece. The design is completed by a round ribbed fabric shade which adds texture and diffuses the light softly, casting a warm, inviting glow that enhances the ambiance of any room. The simple form of the lamp allows it to seamlessly integrate into various interiors, whether placed next to a modern sofa or in a more traditional setting. The combination of metal and fabric speaks to Jakobsson’s refined understanding of materials, where the coolness of the metal contrasts beautifully with the warmth of the light. The understated elegance and practical design make this lamp ideal for creating both ambiance and practical lighting.

Designed by a master of Swedish modernism, this lamp is not just a source of light, but a sculptural element that elevates the overall atmosphere of a space. This floor lamp is a timeless addition to any interior, offering a perfect blend of style and function.
