PH 3/2 Table Lamp by Louis Poulsen
Designed based on the principle of a reflective multi-shade system, creating harmonious and glare-free lighting. The shade design is based on a logarithmic spiral with the centre of the light source placed in the spiral’s focal point.
Poul Henningsen designed the three-shade system back in 1925-1926. The first lights using the system were designed by PH in cooperation with Louis Poulsen for an exhibition in Paris. This partnership continued right up until his death in 1967. Throughout his life, PH sought to create glare-free light, direct light where it was most needed, and create soft shadows, using incandescent bulbs as a light source.
Structure available in Metallic Brass, Metallic Black or High Lustre Chrome, with white opal glass shades.
