Product description
A true masterpiece of Scandinavian lighting design: the BN26 table lamp, designed by the legendary Hans-Agne Jakobsson for his own firm in Markaryd, Sweden, during the 1960s.
This particular version features a sophisticated brushed aluminum finish. Unlike polished or painted versions, the brushed metal offers a subtle, matte texture that perfectly complements modern, industrial, or minimalist interiors.
The lamp is famous for its architectural, tiered shade. This layered construction is not just aesthetic; it was scientifically designed to provide a warm, atmospheric glow while remaining completely glare-free—a hallmark of Jakobsson’s genius. It stands as a prime example of the "Space Age" influence on Mid-Century Modern design.
