Pair of Vintage Hans-Agne Jakobsson Adjustable Brass Scones C2796/1 Sweden 1970s

A striking pair of Hans-Agne Jakobsson Swedish modern wall lamps / Scones model C 2796/1 by Markyrad from the 1970s, crafted in solid brass with hard plastic wall brackets. These sculptural sconces embody the clean functionalism and understated elegance associated with Scandinavian lighting design of the 1970s.

Each lamp features an adjustable arm and a rotating reflector shade that turns 360 degrees, allowing for precise directional lighting.

Their versatile design makes them ideal as bedside reading lamps, library lighting, or sophisticated accent lighting in a living room or study.
The geometric brass shades create a warm, atmospheric glow while maintaining a refined architectural presence. Beautifully proportioned and practical, these lamps are both functional lighting objects and decorative design pieces.

Presented in very good vintage original condition with age-appropriate patina and wear consistent with use. The lamps can be polished, yet we chose to keep them in their original patina.

Hans-Agne Jakobsson (1919–2009) was a Swedish interior architect and furniture designer, widely celebrated for his refined mid-century lighting. Born in Havdhem, Gotland, he trained as a cabinetmaker before studying architecture in Gothenburg and later working with figures such as Carl Malmsten. In 1951, he founded his lighting company in Markaryd, Småland.

Jakobsson’s workshop became known for meticulously crafted brass and glass fixtures designed to emit warm, glare-free light. His philosophy extended to every detail—believing that even the ceiling cup deserved a designer’s consideration. Today, his lighting designs are regarded as quintessential examples of Scandinavian modernism, combining functionality with a quiet, poetic elegance.
