With a legacy spanning over seven decades, Hans-Agne Jakobsson has redefined modern design by seamlessly blending form and function. Most active between the 1950s and '70s—in the golden age of Scandinavian design— Jakobsson is best remembered for his timeless lighting fixtures.
This “7373” lamp is characteristic of the post-war modernism movement which emphasized functional beauty. During this time, Swedish designers sought to create accessible, high-quality pieces that were both practical and visually pleasing. The fluted wood stem of this lamp adds unique texture, while its grooves create depth. The wood showcases a soft, natural finish, highlighting its organic look. Hans-Agne Jakobsson focused on craftsmanship, functionality, and aesthetics while combining durable, classic materials and is evident in this design. In contrast to the wooden stem, the brass elements provide a polished refinement. The warm glow of brass complements the earthy tones of the wood, creating a harmonious balance between materials. The round shape of the base further underscores the lamp's minimalist elegance, on par with the Swedish design principles of clean lines and simplicity. The circular shade even further balances the base, finishing off the look.
This floor lamp utilises high quality materials to create a timeless piece that captures the essence of 20th-century Scandinavian design. This “7373” model was created at the famed Markaryd workshop in Sweden where Jakobsson crafted most of his era-defining creations.

With a legacy spanning over seven decades, Hans-Agne Jakobsson redefined modern design by seamlessly blending form and function. His designs’ unique quality lies in effortlessly infusing Scandinavian simplicity with a touch of innovation, resulting in pieces that transcend time, like this "G-20" floor lamp.
While Jakobsson designed and produced various types of furniture, his lighting received greater international attention - and not without good reason, as this lamp showcases. The craftsmanship involved in creating this piece is evident in the seamless construction and attention to detail. This “G20” model couples brass and fabric, creating a beautiful modern look. This very rare model consists of a pleated fabric shade that is supported by a thin brass pole. The shade, which is closed at the top, difuses the light evenly and gives a beautiful subdued light that is very characteristic for the work of Hans-Agne Jakobsson. At the top of the stem, there is a signature brass ring that can be found on multiple of Jakobsson’s designs, such as on the “B99” table lamp. The heavy foot that keeps the lamp firmly in place, is made of cast iron.
This lamp is a testament to the enduring appeal of Swedish modern design and to Hans-Agne Jakobsson's lasting legacy as one of the movement's most significant contributors.
