An unusual and very elegant pendant lamp in the ph 3/2 model, designed by poul henningsen for louis poulsen in denmark – a timeless design classic that is still considered one of the most thoughtful lighting fixtures ever created. the lamp is made of beautiful mouth-blown opal glass with a chrome suspension. The three shades are made of reflective opal glass in three layers, where the shiny outside meets a matte, sandblasted inside. The combination creates a soft, pleasant and warm light that spreads harmoniously in the room without dazzling. the iconic three-shade system is the result of poul henningsen's close collaboration with louis poulsen during the 1920s. The first ph lamps were developed for the world exhibition in paris in 1925–1926 and quickly gained international attention for their innovative way of shaping and directing light. The design is based on the logarithmic spiral – a mathematical form that recurs in nature – which provides a perfectly balanced light distribution and exceptional lighting comfort. ph 3/2 is a model that combines technical perfection with timeless aesthetics. It fits just as beautifully over the dining table as in the hall, kitchen or living room and adds an elegant expression regardless of the environment. label marked. the lamp is in absolutely top condition and has newly drawn, grounded electricity that was professionally installed by an electrician. dimensions diameter: 29 cm height including chrome bracket: 24 cm a sought-after design classic from louis poulsen that brings both a fantastic light and a piece of danish design history to the home.
