Hans-Ange Jakobsson Glass And Brass Lamp

About the Item

DESCRIPTION A lamp / lantern designed by Hans-Agne Jakobsson and produced by his own company, Hans-Agne Jakobsson AB sometime in the 1970’s. The candlestick mechanism is solid brass with a glass base and globe. The brass mechanism uses a spring to push up a candle as it burns. The lamp measures approximately 10 3/8 inches tall, the base is 5 5/8 inches in diameter, the globe is 5 1/2 inches in diameter The original Hans-Agne Jakobsson decal is on the outside of the base. BIOGRAPHY OF THE DESIGNER Born in 1919 in Gotland, Sweden, Hans-Agne Jakobsson was undeniably one of the world's most versatile and productive lighting designers, creating more than 2,000 models over a fifty year career. He apprenticed as a carpenter before studying architecture in Gothenburg, Sweden, then worked as an industrial designer for General Motors. After working as an assistant for designers Carl Malmsten and Werner West, he founded his own company in 1951; Hans-Agne Jakobsson AB in Markaryd, Sweden and began producing his own designs. Jakobsson was strongly inspired by Poul Henningsen's non-dazzle lighting, in which diffused indirect lighting structures a space and transforms the fixture into a sculpture. That aesthetic can be seen throughout his oeuvre.
