The PH 4/3 pendant lamp, designed by Poul Henningsen and manufactured by Louis Poulsen in Denmark during the 1960s, features a metal construction based on Henningsen’s signature three-shade system arranged in a logarithmic spiral. This design ensures optimal light diffusion and eliminates glare. The shades decrease proportionally in size, creating a distinctive geometric silhouette, while the entire lamp is finished in a uniform, cool blue matte tone. The surface is smooth and unadorned, with crisp edges that emphasize the purity of its functional form. Suspended from a white cord, the lamp gains a subtle contrast that reinforces its minimalist presence. The piece is preserved in excellent, original condition, with no signs of wear. As a refined evolution of Henningsen’s 1929 concept, the PH 4/3 lamp carries the spirit of Danish modernism: a focus on rationality, precision, and a deep respect for light itself. Its form recalls an era when design was a manifesto of both function and aesthetics. The cool blue evokes Scandinavian skies, and the diffused, gentle illumination invites clarity and calm, as if the lamp tells the story of the Barcelona World’s Fair and the triumph of simplicity. This lamp would work well suspended above a dining table or as a focal point in a living room, harmonizing with simple wooden or metal furniture. It may be paired with other mid-century modern accents, such as upholstered chairs with slender legs or minimalist shelving. Combining it with neutral textiles and natural wood details highlights the cool blue finish and architectural character of the lamp. The lamp requires an E27 bulb up to 60 W. It measures 17 cm in height and 40 cm in diameter. The wiring has been replaced for safety, and the metal surfaces can be maintained with a soft, dry cloth.
