Ceiling Lamp in Brass and Glass by Hans-Agne Jakobsson, 1960s

This rare ceiling lamp, model T-434/15, designed by Hans-Agne Jakobsson and produced by Hans-Agne Jakobsson AB in Markaryd, Sweden during the 1960s, is a distinguished example of the designer’s mastery of material and atmospheric lighting. Crafted from solid brass, the lamp has developed a rich patina over time, which enhances its vintage character and depth.

The design features fifteen cylindrical amber glass shades, each enclosing an individual light source. The amber tint of the glass softens and diffuses the light, casting a warm, inviting glow that is quintessentially Jakobsson. The lamp’s structure consists of a central brass rod from which symmetrical, gracefully curved brass arms radiate outward, each arm supporting a glass cylinder. The brass surface shows natural wear consistent with its age, contributing to the piece’s authentic vintage appeal.

This model is highly sought after among collectors and enthusiasts of Scandinavian lighting, representing Jakobsson’s signature combination of premium materials and elegant craftsmanship. The lamp retains its original manufacturer’s label, affirming its provenance and authenticity.

The lamp measures 65 cm in diameter (25.6 inches) and 140 cm in height (55.1 inches), making it a striking and sculptural centerpiece for any interior.
