The Charlottenborg PH 6 1/2-6 ceiling lamp was designed by Sophus Frandsen and Ebbe Christensen in 1979, building upon Poul Henningsen’s iconic concept for Louis Poulsen. Created specifically for the Charlottenborg Exhibition Hall in Copenhagen, this enlarged model continues the PH tradition with its four concentric metal shades arranged in gently curved, harmonious layers. The lamp’s construction features a matte, slightly warm white finish that is consistent across all surfaces, free from decorative accents or patterns. The wide, overlapping shades are separated by minimalist, brushed metal spacers, adding industrial refinement and ensuring even light diffusion. At the top, a cylindrical metal element in matte silver anchors the suspension cable. All visible elements are original and in excellent condition, with no dents, scratches, or signs of wear. Condition: very good, with minimal traces of use. This lamp echoes the disciplined yet imaginative spirit of Scandinavian modernism. Its form expresses restraint and clarity—light is subtly diffused through four sculptural rings, recalling an era when illumination was seen as a material that shapes space. The PH system’s voice is one of thoughtful precision: every detail, from proportion to finish, serves the user’s comfort and the room’s atmosphere. The Charlottenborg lamp quietly narrates the architectural sensibility of the 1970s, where function and understated elegance converged in a single, refined gesture. The Charlottenborg lamp would work well suspended above a dining table or as the main source of light in a spacious living room. It can be paired with pale wood furniture, minimalist sofas with geometric lines, and textiles in natural tones—here, its modernist pedigree stands out. It is also worth combining with simple metal or glass accents and greenery, which will soften the form’s rigor and highlight its calm, timeless character.
