PH 5 Pendant Lamp by Poul Henningsen for Louis Poulsen, Denmark, 1958
The iconic PH 5 pendant lamp was designed by Poul Henningsen and introduced in 1958 as part of his lifelong pursuit of creating perfectly glare-free lighting. Produced by Louis Poulsen, the official manufacturer of PH lamps, this design has become one of the most celebrated achievements in Danish modern lighting. This versions is a vintage model from the 1970s.
The lamp is based on Henningsen’s revolutionary three-shade system, which directs light downward and outward while completely eliminating glare. This thoughtful construction ensures an even, comfortable illumination that is both functional and atmospheric, making the PH 5 ideal for dining areas, kitchens, and living spaces.
Poul Henningsen dedicated much of his career to studying light, shadow, and human perception, striving to direct light precisely where it is needed while maintaining visual comfort. The PH5 embodies this philosophy and stands as a timeless example of Scandinavian design, where aesthetics and function exist in perfect harmony.
This fine pendant lamp will complement many interior styles. An Antique, Classic, Scandinavian, Modern, or an Art Deco home decor.
