About the Item
This rare candelabra, designed by the iconic Scandinavian modernist Hans-Agne Jakobsson, is a beautiful example of his work from the 1960s. Known for his innovative approach to lighting, Jakobsson created this brass candelabra, Model L29, a piece of minimalistic art that captures the essence of Scandinavian modern design.
Made from brass, the candelabra stands at 20 cm and is designed to hold four thin candles. The piece is marked underneath, confirming its authenticity and origin.
Despite its age, the candelabra remains in good condition, with only minor scratches and some tarnish, which are common in vintage brass items and add to its unique character.
