Launched in 2017, here is the reduced-down version of the famous PH 5 pendant designed in 1958 by Poul Henningsen (1894 – 1967). A real Danish design icon, PH 5 is one of the best-selling pendants in Denmark! Designed by Poul Henningsen, the PH pendant was shown for the first time at the Copenhagen Art & Design Museum in 1958. In search of the “perfect light”, Poul Henningsen designed the PH lights collection to get as close as possible to natural light. These lamps surrounded by metal shades which play the role of reflectors, guarantee a diffuse, gentle light with no glare. These pendants ensure an extremely comfortable and efficient diffusion of the light, mainly directed downwards, but which also leaves from the sides in a more subdued form. Due to its design, it is impossible to directly see the light source, which means there is absolutely no glare. It can be hung quite low above a dining table, or in the middle of the room in a higher position. It can be equipped with powerful light power all the while remaining comfortable on the eye. This pendant is made up of three spherical lampshades mounted on a cone. The lampshades are connected by rods. This vintage-style pendant with its perfectly uniform lighting still appeals to design fans all over the world today.
