ABOUT PRODUCTID 9943
The PH 4/3 pendant lamp, designed by Poul Henningsen and produced by Louis Poulsen in Denmark in the 1960s, exemplifies Scandinavian modernist lighting. The construction features three metal shades with a smooth, matte finish in a soft, creamy off-white tone, arranged concentrically according to the logarithmic spiral principle. The proportions are meticulously balanced: the largest shade sits at the top, with two smaller, slightly flared shades below, ensuring even light diffusion. The lamp is characterized by its seamless design—no visible joints or screws—and the power cable is discreetly integrated into the central cylinder. The coloration remains neutral and timeless, underscoring the lamp’s quiet presence. The PH 4/3 is a simplified continuation of the iconic PH lamp series from 1929, which received top honors at the Barcelona World’s Fair. Condition: fully restored, with no visible signs of wear. The form of the PH 4/3 lamp speaks to the 1960s—a decade devoted to balancing function and aesthetics. Its gently matte surface and crisp geometry reflect a confidence in the interplay between light and simplicity: illumination here becomes part of the architectural narrative rather than mere utility. The metal shades, designed to distribute light softly and evenly, recall a pursuit of harmony and a calm, unobtrusive role in the domestic environment
