About the Product:
Poul Henningsen developed the PH 5 in 1958 in response to constant changes in the shape and size of incandescent bulbs, creating a lamp that could be used with any light source. The iconic design is based on the same principles as Henningsen’s three-shade system, which ensures that the light is soft, pleasant, and completely glare-free, making it the perfect dining room table lamp. Originally, the PH 5 was fitted with red and blue shades to improve the color of the light; however, these have been removed in later designs as modern light sources reproduce daylight much more effectively than they did in 1958.
Available in a number of different color variations, the PH 5 is a much-loved and well-known pendant, found in many homes around the world. Lower shade: Spun steel. Other shades and anti-glare disc: Spun aluminum, spun copper, or spun brass. Struts: Rolled aluminum. Diffuser: Frosted glass.
The fixture provides comfortable, glare-free light, based on the principle of Poul Henningsen’s reflective three-shade system, which directs the majority of the light downwards. It emits a lateral light as well as illuminating itself, providing a soft radiance from within its core. The lower shade is furthermore fitted with a frosted diffuser glass to ensure that the downward directed light is 100% glare-free.
The PH 5 Brass & Copper Glossy Pendant Lamp is not just a source of illumination; it’s a statement piece that adds elegance and charm to any space. Whether suspended above a dining table, in a cozy reading nook, or as a focal point in a living room, this lamp captivates with its timeless design and impeccable craftsmanship. With Louis Poulsen’s reputation for excellence backing it, the PH 5 is more than just a lamp—it’s a symbol of enduring beauty and quality.
