He was one of the a key figures in Danish Modernism and his work is known for its elegance, simplicity and functionality. Clean lines, soft curves and an emphasis on the interaction between form and light were hallmarks of Bang’s work. He collaborated with several leading glassmakers and designed a wide range of objects, from ornamental sculptures and chandeliers to practical objects such as vases and bowls. Jacob E. Bang’s designs are still prized by collectors and design enthusiasts and are considered important examples of modern design. This red/orange glass hanging lamp is, both on and off, an eye-catcher in any interior. This lamp is in very good condition but it has an air bubble in the neck of the lamp (see picture).
