Hans-Agne Jakobsson was one of the central figures of Swedish lighting design during the post-war decades. After training as both a carpenter and architect, he founded his own company in Markaryd in 1951, where he developed lighting that softened the harsher qualities of electric illumination through beautiful shades, natural materials, and restrained forms.

Jakobsson designed this pair of wall lamps in the mid-20th century. It was a revolutionary period in design throughout Scandinavia, where function and form merged in the most intriguing ways. The designer prized the marriage of form and function, with a poise that is hard to imitate or force. The shape and materials of the shades set the overall aesthetic of these lamps. The opaque glass is made into a bulbous form with a that narrows towards the bottom, held securely by the brass shade holders. The holders feel airy, slender, and minimal, allowing the focus to be on the shades and the light they emit. The brass construction also creates a rich, warm glow, enhancing the light while exuding a sense of effortless sophistication. The mid-20th century was defined by leading Swedish designers’ sleek and innovative modernist creations, and Jakobsson’s prowess is evident here as these lamps can both stand out or blend into a room, depending on the interior style.

Sconces are a timeless type of lighting fixture that can easily elevate their surroundings. These fixtures never go out of style and have been in use for centuries for good reason. This model is reflective of a time when creativity knew no bounds, and designers were free to explore new horizons in crafting captivating lighting fixtures.

The Art Deco movement, which emerged in the early 20th century, is known for its bold geometric shapes, luxurious materials, and an emphasis on streamlined forms. Art Deco came as a reaction against the flowing, organic lines of Art Nouveau, thus opting for symmetry, order, and elegance. Influenced by modernity and industrialisation, Art Deco pieces often features polished finishes, and an overall sense of opulence, designed to elevate everyday spaces.

This lamp exemplifies the refined geometry and material richness characteristic of the movement. The piece is constructed from patinated bronze and frosted glass, and the materials’ tones elegantly highlight both the age and craftsmanship. The interplay between the rich patina of the bronze and the milk-white shade creates a harmonious contrast. The visual interest of this lamp is accentuated by the form of the female figurine that is suspended from the wall, mounting to the shade. Wall lamps such as this are a timeless example of how thoughtful craftsmanship can result in lighting fixtures that transcend their utilitarian purpose, becoming works of art in their own right. Today, we consider Art Deco and the early 20th century era a golden age for lighting design. During these decades, some of the most significant luminaries were created, and remain highly sought-after today.

This wall lamp bridges sculptural presence and domestic functionality. It embodies the enduring qualities of the Art Deco movement in Europe: geometric refinement, tonal richness, and atmospheric light. The qualities transform it into a bold design statement, while still able to complement a modern space.

Art Deco, which emerged from the 1925 Paris Exposition, celebrated craftsmanship, modern materials, and stylised forms - balancing decorative flair with functional clarity. This striking table lamp exemplifies the bold, innovative design principles of the Art Deco movement, which dominated the later first half of the 20th century. The style merged modernity with opulence, drawing inspiration from industrial progress and the glamour of the Jazz Age.

This lamp is constructed out of a triple-stem body, in which three slender copper supports rise from a broad domed base before converging to create a unified form. This arrangement creates a sense of lightness while giving the base a sculptural character. The copper has acquired a rich patina over time, lending it a charming, lived-in feeling. A wide conical shade complements the composition, its crisp geometric profile contrasting with the softly rounded forms below. The restrained material palette allows the silhouette to take centre stage, while the careful proportions ensure that every element, from the unique base to the delicate neck beneath the socket, feels balanced. When illuminated, the broad shade casts a soft, even light that reinforces the lamp's calm, understated presence.

The European Art Deco movement was a beacon of innovation and style, and one of its timeless results was this copper table lamp. This piece of functional art epitomises the elegance and sophistication that characterised the era throughout Europe.

Glössner & Co. was a Swedish glass company founded by brothers Karl-Erik and Harry Glössner, active from the 1930s. Known for their decorative glasswork, they produced a range of items including etched and frosted glass, leaded glass windows, and artistic lighting fixtures. Their designs often featured stylised figures, nature motifs, and geometric patterns, all carachteristics found in this ceiling lamp.

Bo Notini was among the most accomplished lighting designers working in Sweden with Glössner & Co.. Notini came from a family of designers, his grandfather Harald and father Gunnar being key figures of Swedish lighting creation. Bo Notini often incorporated etched or sandblasted decoration into understated, elegant forms, in the case of this lamp, they take the form of birds, clouds and raindrops - all elements inspired by nature. These stylised elements are etched on an amber glass shade suspended from a slender brass rod and canopy, creating a light composition. The gently curved sides of the shade soften the simple profile, while the polished brass introduces a subtle metallic counterpoint to the textured glass. When lit, the amber glass diffuses a warm glow that highlights the etched decoration from within. The restrained palette of brass and glass allows the quality of the materials and craftsmanship to remain the focus, resulting in a fixture that is both decorative and highly refined.

Glössner & Co. developed a body of work distinguished by its refined proportions and exceptional glass craftsmanship. This piece remains an elegant example of Swedish lighting design from the 1940s, equally compelling as a source of ambient light and as a finely crafted decorative object.

Nordic mid-century design of the mid 20th century was defined by restraint, material clarity, and a strong emphasis on functional beauty. Designers and manufacturers in Sweden, Denmark, and Finland sought to create objects that were elegant without being excessive, modern without feeling unnatural. Companies like Bergboms became known for producing refined lighting fixtures that balanced industrial precision with warm materials such as brass, wood, and leather. This lamp reflects an approach where proportion, surface, and light quality are carefully considered to create harmony in a space.

This lamp stands on an elegant tripod brass base that gives it a remarkably light visual footprint while providing excellent stability. Rising from the base is a slender black lacquered metal stem, interrupted by brass details that introduce subtle contrast and outline the vertical composition. The brass continues into the shade support, creating a cohesive transition from base to light source. The lamp draws its character from the interplay of its materials: the warm brass, the deep black lacquer, and the soft texture of the fabric shade. The restrained palette allows the crisp geometry and precise proportions to remain the focus. Model “G-31” has a versatile and elegant presence. Its slim profile occupies little space, yet the tripod base and carefully considered detailing give it a strong identity.

The result is a floor lamp that is both practical and sculptural, demonstrating Bergboms' ability to achieve elegance through thoughtful construction and measured use of materials.

Danish lighting of the mid-20th century often combined straightforward construction with materials that brought warmth to otherwise restrained forms. Most of the stunning minimalist designs from the turn of the century to the 1960s captured the imagination of the world, especially the work of Danish creators, who set the high bars for design.

This Danish wall light combines wood, metal and fabric in a design built around that practical arrangement. The lamp is mounted by a compact rectangular metal element, from which a long wooden arm projects outward in an upward curve. The wood has a warm brown tone and tapers slightly toward its outer end, making the reach of the arm appear lighter. Suspended close to the end of the arm is a large custom-made textile shade with a rounded, lantern-like profile: narrow at the top, broad through the middle and drawing inward again toward the bottom. The shade is defined by vertical ribs that give the fabric surface a clear structure. While the light passing through it emphasises each individual section. The contrast between the sweeping wooden arm, small metal fittings and softly rounded shade is particularly effective to create a beautiful piece: the arm establishes a strong horizontal line while the shade hangs beneath it as the visual counterweight.

The extended wooden arm makes the fixture useful beside a bed, sofa or reading chair, where light can be brought forward from the wall rather than fixed directly against it. The result is a distinctly functional piece whose character comes from its construction and contrasting materials, in line with the Danish pursuit of functionality and classic forms.

“GA9” appears to be inspired by a droplet, floating upward the wall. The mouth blown glass with bubbles creates an intricate play between light and shadow, giving the appearance of light travelling through water.

Swedish architect and designer, Erik Gunnar Asplund, is celebrated as the godfather of functionalist design in Sweden. Like his celebrated Stockholm City Library, this wall lamp emphasizes geometric simplicity and clarity of form. The construction of this model is ingenious, with a bent arm holding the glass in place, with yet another arm holding the light source in the centre of the luminaire. The black lacquered metal bends organically into a sinuous form, while the back-plate has a polygon shape. Pairing the geometric elements with the more organic ones shows Asplund’s great eye for design that was well ahead of his time. The large, mushroom-like mouth blown glass shade has a distinctive “drop” on its surface, creating a beautiful effect that becomes even more apparent when the light is on. The atmospheric light it creates is not measurable, nor is it functional in the traditional sense. It is easily forgotten, but nevertheless important when creating a space of well being. It is the most basic and fundamental of all lighting principles, one that has been with us since the dawn of time. Asplund’s life and work served as inspiration to a number of Scandinavian design luminaries, such as lifelong friend and mentee Alvar Aalto, as well as Erik Bryggman and Arne Jacobsen.

An acronym for Allmänna Svenska Elektriska Aktiebolaget (“General Swedish Electrical Limited Company”), ASEA was a Swedish manufacturer of electrical products and industrial infrastructure. The company endures in the hearts of design lovers for their mid-century interior lighting collections produced in collaboration with venerated designers like Gunnar Asplund.

About the designer:

Erik Gunnar Asplund, born in Stockholm in 1885, was a Swedish architect, mostly known as a key representative of the Nordic classicism of the 1920s.

He studied architecture at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. After completing his studies, he worked for Asplund Tengrom architects, Westman and Ostberg. He completed his architectural training, with long journeys through Sweden and other parts of Europe. Asplund worked alone and obtained a large amount of his work through contests.

Asplund was a professor of architecture at the Royal Institute of Technology from 1931. His appointment was marked by a conference, later published under the title "Our architectural concept of space. Gunnar Asplund is considered perhaps the most important Swedish modernist architect and has had a great influence on successive generations of Swedish and Nordic architects. Among the most significant works of Asplund is the Stockholm public library, built between 1924 and 1928, which represents the prototype example of Nordic classicism and the so-called Swedish grace movement.

During the period from 1931 until his death, Asplund moved away from Modernism and began to show sympathy towards a stripped Nordic classicism. Asplund continued to draw until his death in Stockholm in 1940.

Art Deco developed internationally during the 1920s and 1930s, bringing geometric forms and stylized ornament into architecture, furniture, lighting, and decorative objects. Geometry became one of its most recognisable characteristics, with stepped profiles, repeated lines, and clear volumes appearing across the decorative arts. This pendant lamp embodies the movement through a striking decorative construction.

The pendant is constructed around a hexagonal wooden shade featuring a sequence of stepped, concentric tiers. Each successive layer decreases toward the center, producing a shallow inverted-pyramid profile and giving depth to the shade. The repeated horizontal edges emphasize the geometry, while the visible grain and warm tone of the wood soften the otherwise precise composition. Along the surface, carved horizontal elements offer the shade a dynamic appearance, with flowing lines guiding the eye across the wood. A small spherical wooden finial marks the center of the shade and visually completes its downward profile. Above, a long slender suspension rod connects the shade to a compact wooden ceiling canopy, keeping the structure simple and allowing the unusual wooden shade to remain the main feature. The brass rod complements the warmth of the wood, the two materials working together to created a cohesive piece. To increase its functionality, the inside of the shade is painted white, allowing the light to bounce toward the ceiling and create ambiance despite the opacity of the wood.

Rather than depending on applied ornament, the pendant achieves its decorative effect through repetition, symmetry, material, and the profile of the shade itself. The use of simple geometry highlights the vocabulary associated with the Art Deco movement, while its materials underscore the creativity of its designer.

Attributed to Birger Ekman (1905–1986), this floor lamp reflects the refined decorative language of Swedish Grace during the 1930s. Ekman is primarily associated with furniture distinguished by exceptional veneer work, marquetry, and finely executed inlays, combined with traditional cabinetmaking techniques. Swedish Grace emerged during the 1920s and 1930s as Sweden's interpretation of Art Deco, balancing classical proportions with simplified ornament and outstanding craftsmanship.

This lamp shares many of the characteristics found in Ekman’s work, particularly the sophisticated use of contrasting veneers and decorative inlay. The lamp is constructed around a tall, square column veneered in alternating bands of richly grained wood, creating a striking rhythm that immediately draws the eye upward. Fine inlaid details run across the height of the column, showing a stylised woman’s figure, demonstrating the precision associated with Swedish cabinetmaking of the period. The square base repeats the veneered and inlaid decoration while incorporating a sculptural burl wood element at its center, introducing an organic counterpoint to the otherwise geometric composition. A slender chromed arm projects from the top of the body and supports an adjustable shade, allowing the light to be directed as needed while adding a subtle functional contrast to the warmth of the wood. The careful combination of veneer, marquetry, chrome, and carved burl transforms the lamp into a piece that functions as both lighting and decorative furniture.

Today, lamps attributed to Birger Ekman are particularly appreciated for their exceptional woodworking and their close relationship to Swedish Grace furniture design. This example demonstrates how decorative techniques could be successfully integrated into a functional object, resulting in a floor lamp that is as much a showcase of craftsmanship as it is a source of light.
