Hans-Agne Jakobsson for Hans-Agne Jakobsson AB in Markaryd, Sweden, pair of 'Fringe' table lamps, model B-140, brass, silk, Sweden, 1960s

These extravagant desk lights are composed of an elegant curved arm, which holds a pendant adorned with off-white silk fringes. As a result, a sophisticated and warm light partition shines through these eccentric strings. A design that is a wonderful solution to lighten up a small space, or would function very well as an additional light in a larger space.

Hans-Agne Jakobsson (1919-2009) was designing in the golden age of Scandinavian design. Swedish interior decorator and furniture designer Hans-Agne Jakobsson is best remembered for his softly glowing, glare-free lighting fixtures, which were inspired by the "organic modern" approaches of Danish lighting master Poul Henningsen and Finnish icon Alvar Aalto. Jakobsson created a range of pendants, floor lamps, wall lamps, and table lamps that showcase a penchant for diverse materials and forms, as well as a deep understanding of lighting effects.
