About the Item

Crystal glass sconces pair of wall lamps by Hans-Agne Jakobsson, produced by Hans-Agne Jakobsson AB in Markaryd, Sweden in the 1960s. Absolutely gorgeous sconces, each with two crystal glass shades and a circular brass base. The crystal glass shades are egg-shaped with a light amber, almost champagne colored tone in the glass, resting on a small brass cup with soft rounded edges. The two crystal glass shade and brass cups are extended from the brass base by brass pipes, slightly curved outwards to give room for the beautiful crystal glass shades. These lights are designed to be connected to existing hard wiring behind the wall, and are therefore fitted with safety clamps to ease the installation. The handmade crystal glass shades with light amber, almost champagne colored tone gives way for a softly emitted illumination with a golden ambiance in an oval pattern upwards and sideways. This makes them perfect for accenting a large mirror in the hallway, or your favourite area in the living room. They would also be a stunning pair of bedside lights, creating a cozy atmosphere. A beautiful pair of vintage sconces by one of the most influential designers in the 1960s Scandinavia, Hans-Agne Jakobsson. Both are sourced from same single owner, who bought them in the late 1960s or early 1970s - both lights are in very good, near excellent vintage condition. Only thing keeping from classifying them as excellent is the age-related signs on the brass parts. Some would polish them up, but I personally prefer them as they are, with the darkened brass. No chips or cracks in the crystal glass shades - two of the crystal shades still carries a sticker, which reads Made in Sweden. Please see the photos. Condition: All original. Tested and fully functional. Fitted with safety clamps for easy connection to existing wiring. Tested and fully functional. Cleaned, brass parts polished, labeled and packed in protective bag. Light source: Two x two bulbs, Edison screw-fittings (E27/E26) Max 40 Watt each (For these specific lights I recommend using small incandescent tubular bulbs - just ask me and I will help you find a local supplier!).
