ABOUT PRODUCTID 2035
The Danish PH 5 pendant lamp, designed by Poul Henningsen for Louis Poulsen in 1958, exemplifies the disciplined, functional approach characteristic of mid-century modern design. Its body comprises five concentrically arranged, curved aluminum shades – the largest and lower elements finished in an intense, matte blue, while the central shade is a crisp matte white. The lamp is suspended from a black, fabric-covered cord, adding a contemporary accent to its classic form. Henningsen’s signature reflective system evenly diffuses light both downward and sideways, ensuring glare-free, comfortable illumination. The design features geometric clarity, balanced proportions, and smooth matte surfaces, all reflecting the designer’s pursuit of harmony and technical precision. The lamp is preserved in very good vintage condition, with only minimal traces of age typical for original pieces from the 1950s. The PH 5’s form speaks in the language of Danish design’s golden age – restrained yet innovative. The pairing of cool, saturated blue with white echoes the clarity of Scandinavian daylight, while the concentric shades evoke a sense of rhythm and balance in everyday life. This fixture does not dominate the room; rather, it collaborates with the space, subtly shaping light and accentuating detail. Its illumination is gentle, inviting moments of pause – as if whispering of Danish simplicity and mindful living. The PH 5 can be showcased above a dining table, coffee table, or as a
