The candlestick model l-102/27, designed and produced by hans-agne jakobsson ab in markaryd, sweden during the 1950s, represents a distinctive example of scandinavian modern lighting design. The piece features a cylindrical base made of brass, which has developed a warm, naturally aged patina over time. This patina includes subtle oxidation and minor surface marks, typical of vintage brass objects, adding character without compromising the overall integrity of the material. The brass base supports a domed glass shade in a soft light blue hue. The glass is smoothly finished and contrasts elegantly with the metallic base, creating a balance between warmth and coolness in both color and texture. This interplay of materials and tones is characteristic of jakobsson’s work, known for combining atmospheric qualities with precise craftsmanship. In terms of condition, the candlestick is well preserved. The brass shows consistent aging appropriate to its vintage status, while the glass shade remains intact without any visible chips or cracks, maintaining its original clarity and color. The dimensions of the candlestick are 16.5 cm in diameter and 27 cm in height (approximately 6.5 by 10.6 inches), giving it a compact but substantial presence suitable for both decorative and functional purposes. This piece is illustrative of jakobsson’s approach to lighting design during the mid-20th century, blending refined materials with sculptural form.
