Hans-Agne Jakobsson
Swedish designer Hans-Agne Jakobsson was a prolific creator of lighting design, producing hundreds of lamps and pendants during his long career. Jakobsson worked for a number of Scan- dinavian brands before establishing a manufacturing company in Sweden in order to produce and distribute his own work throughout the 1960’s and beyond. Although Jakobsson produced lighting in a variety of materials, it was his innovative designs made in pine veneer that quickly became modern icons and remain one of the most distinctive lighting icons of the last century.
