About the Item

The kerosene/oil lamp model L-47, designed by Hans-Agne Jakobsson and produced by his company in Markaryd, Sweden during the 1950s, exemplifies Scandinavian modern design principles by balancing functionality with refined simplicity. The lamp features a cylindrical brass base with a polished, smooth surface that houses the fuel reservoir and wick adjustment mechanism. This base exhibits a warm golden tone that harmonizes with the lamp’s other elements. Above the burner unit, a perforated brass component supports an amber glass shade with a subtly tapered cylindrical shape. The shade is hand-blown, evidenced by visible air bubbles within the glass, lending the piece an organic texture and a unique artisanal quality. A tall, clear glass chimney crowns the lamp, designed to optimize combustion and ensure an even diffusion of light. When lit, the combination of the warm brass and amber glass creates a soft, atmospheric glow, highlighting Jakobsson’s characteristic emphasis on warmth and intimacy in lighting design. The original label from Hans-Agne Jakobsson AB is affixed to the underside of the base, confirming the lamp’s authenticity. Measuring 15 cm in width and depth, and 40 cm in height (approximately 5.9 by 5.9 by 15.7 inches), the lamp is a compact yet elegant piece that demonstrates Jakobsson’s mastery in combining high-quality materials with practical and aesthetic considerations typical of mid-century Scandinavian lighting.
