This impressive mid-century chandelier by Swedish lighting designer Hans-Agne Jakobsson exemplifies the sophisticated elegance and craftsmanship that marked his work in the postwar era. Composed of twelve opaline tinted glass globes symmetrically arranged around a central brass structure, the piece is notable for its geometric clarity and warm diffusion of light.
In this model, he achieves a subtle balance between functionality and sculptural presence, creating a piece that is both architectural and ambient.
The chandelier's refined palette—gold-toned brass and soft amber-tinted glass—enhances its versatility in contemporary and classic interiors alike. This model is characteristic of Jakobsson's production for his company in Markaryd, where he developed a distinctive Scandinavian idiom that combined organic inspiration with modernist restraint.
