ABOUT PRODUCTID 9482
The PH5 pendant lamp, designed by Poul Henningsen for Louis Poulsen in 1958 and produced in Denmark during the 1960s, exemplifies mature Scandinavian modernism. The body, crafted from aluminum and metal, is finished in a soft, matte ivory white that gently diffuses light. Its construction features several concentric, curved shades of varying diameters, assembled into a harmonious, layered form. Slender vertical rods in a subtle lavender-blue accent connect the elements, adding a delicate chromatic detail to the restrained palette. The proportions are thoughtfully balanced—a wide, shallow main shade is complemented by smaller, nested dishes below. The surface is smooth, free from scratches, dents, or discoloration, with new wiring ensuring safety in use. Condition: excellent, with no visible signs of wear. The PH5 tells the story of 1960s Denmark—a time of searching for perfect light and the democratic beauty of everyday objects. Its silhouette distributes brightness in precise layers, as if capturing both function and the poetry of light in a single object. Matte surfaces soften contrasts, lavender-blue rods introduce a quiet boldness, and the whole piece—born of an era of optimism and technical innovation—still speaks with a calm, timeless voice in contemporary interiors. The PH5 pendant may be suspended above a round dining table, where it diffuses light without glare, creating an inviting atmosphere for gatherings. It can be paired with natural wood furniture, simple upholstery in neutral tones, or single color accents in the mid-century modern spirit. The lamp also works well with minimalist ceramics or graphite-colored accessories, highlighting its geometric precision. In a living room setting, it can hang low above a coffee table, surrounded
