ABOUT PRODUCTID 17667
The PH 5 pendant lamp, designed by Poul Henningsen for Danish manufacturer Louis Poulsen, stands as a hallmark of Scandinavian modernism. This particular piece dates from the 1990s and is defined by its distinctive multi-layered construction composed of concentric metal shades. The exterior features a warm, saturated red-orange hue with a matte finish, while the inner surfaces and the very top are kept in uniform matte white—reinforcing the diffusive qualities of its illumination and introducing a subtle, elegant contrast. Delicate lavender accents appear on the spacers, adding an understated, sophisticated color note to the composition. The lamp is suspended from a black cord with a fine textile braid and finished with a modern metal canopy. The construction exhibits careful precision in joinery and seamless matte surfaces, evincing the meticulous Danish approach to both aesthetics and function. This example is preserved in very good condition—its surfaces show no dents and only minor, age-consistent signs of use characteristic of vintage pieces.The PH 5 from the 1990s evokes an era when light became an integral part of everyday scenography—more than a functional necessity. Its gentle curves and thoughtfully balanced colors resonate with the ethos of northern modernists: light as a soothing, atmospheric force, softly shaping interiors without dominating them. The matte metal, pure white interiors, and discreet lavender details together tell a story evocative of a Copenhagen morning—where illumination gently stretches across the room, inviting calm conversation. The lamp’s form endures as an instantly recognizable classic, continuously articulating the harmony of form and function.
