This is the smaller version of the famous PH 5 pendant, in a new range of subtle shades of colour. A true icon of Danish design, PH 5 is one of Denmark’s best-selling pendants! Designed by Poul Henningsen, the PH pendant was presented for the first time at the Museum of Art & Design in Copenhagen in 1958. Henningsen designed the PH collection of light fixtures in his quest for “perfect light”, “to achieve as natural a light as possible”. These lamps, encircled by metal lampshades serving as reflectors, cast a soft ambient light with no glare. The pendants distribute light both very comfortably and effectively, mainly downwards but also more gently at its sides. Its design makes it impossible to see the light source directly, so it will never be dazzling. It can be hung quite low, above a dining table for example, or higher up in the middle of a room. You can use a high luminosity bulb without compromising eye comfort. The pendant consists of three spherical lampshades mounted on a cone. Its mat lampshades are connected by rods. A vintage-style pendant that offers a perfectly homogeneous lighting, and which still attracts design enthusiasts the world over.
