Pair of Hans-Agne Jakobsson Model "S-1871" Floor Lamps, Sweden 20th Century

About the Item

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. This pair of “S-1871” floor lamps exemplifies Jakobsson's design prowess, showcasing his ability to create functional art. The lamps feature tall, slender black metal stems that provide a delicate yet sturdy structure. The round black bases support the elegant vertical lines of the stems, 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 models. The design is completed by round ribbed fabric shades that add texture to the look. These shades diffuse the light softly, casting a warm, inviting glow that will enhance the atmosphere of any room they are in, whether placed next to a modern sofa or in a more traditional setting. The combination of metal and fabric also 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 these lamps ideal for creating both aesthetic and practical lighting. Designed by a master of Swedish modernism, these lamps are not just sources of light, but a pair that will elevate the overall atmosphere of a space. These floor lamps are a timeless addition to any interior, offering a perfect blend of style and function. Condition: In good vintage condition. Wear consistent with age and use. The lamps have recently been rewired and the shades are a later replacement. Dimensions: 15.35 in ⌀ x 67.91 in H (adjustable height) 39 cm ⌀ x 172.5 cm H (adjustable height)
