AB Ellysett Edda Wall Lamp by Hans-Agne Jakobsson

Edda wall lamp designed by Hans-Agne Jakobsson for AB Ellysett Markaryd, Sweden. This lamp features pine wood veneer slats mounted on a copper plate. It has a bakelite E27 socket. These 60s designs from Hans-Agne Jakobsson are simple and so beautiful. They give a beautiful defuse light when turned on. This lamp is in good vintage condition and we replaced the bottom pine veneer slat. It has a slightly different color as you might see in the photo's but it's not really noticeable and the wood will most probably discolor over time into the same color as the rest of the lamp.

Hans-Agne Jakobsson was a Swedish interior designer and achritect, born in 1919 in Hvadhem, Sweden. Jakobsson became a cabinetmaker at the age of 18 and later he graduated as an architect in Göteburg. He worked as an assistant for Carl Malmsten and Werner West. In 1951 he founded his own lighting company: Hans-Agne Jakobsson AB in Markaryd. He designed his first lamps which were completely made from pine wood. This was his first step in the lighting business and his biggest succes.
