Mid-Century Table Lamp Model B-205 by Hans-Agne Jakobsson

About the Item

Produced by Hans-Agne Jakobsson in Markaryd, Sweden. Inspired by the organic mushroom lamp, this Mid-century Rare table lamp, model B-205 designed by Hans-Agne Jakobsson, is a lovely design combining traditional and modern lighting design. The design is therefore derivative of a traditional aesthetic with a modern sensibility, mixed with an extensive use of Perspex glass and steel as its materials. The use of acrylic glass was still fairly uncommon in the 1960s, showing the Swedish designer’s forward-thinking design skill. The material is a polymethyl methacrylate acrylic sheet which is manufactured from methyl methacrylate monomer, and is lower density and lighter in weight compared with glass. Additionally, the clear sheet offers excellent optical clarity which is why it is used here as well. The resulting look is similar to milk glass. True to Hans-Agne Jakobsson’s design vision, this table lamp model utilizes its quality materials to create a soft quality of light. This “B205” table lamp was created at his own famed workshop in Markaryd, Sweden where the Swedish designer and cabinetmaker gave shape to most of his era defining creations.
