SCANDINAVIAN MID-CENTURY PINEWOOD TABLE LAMP — IN THE MANNER OF HANS-AGNE JAKOBSSON (1919–2009)
A Glowing Tribute to Nordic Craftsmanship and Design
In the spirit of the iconic Swedish lighting designer Hans-Agne Jakobsson, this beautifully handcrafted table lamp features a cylindrical shade made of seven finely curved pinewood slats, delicately connected by three vertical wooden pillars. The result is a softly sculptural form that radiates warmth, simplicity, and natural beauty—hallmarks of Scandinavian design.
When lit, the thin wood shavings emit a gentle, reddish glow, transforming any room with an intimate, atmospheric light that is both calming and elegant.
Jakobsson’s work is celebrated for its use of organic materials, lightweight forms, and diffused glow—qualities embodied perfectly in this piece. Whether you're a collector or simply a lover of Nordic minimalism, this lamp is a rare and soulful accent that speaks to the timeless appeal of mid-century Scandinavian lighting.
Despite the delicate nature of its materials, the lamp remains in remarkably good vintage condition, with just two minor imperfections in the pine, barely visible and without compromising its visual impact.
