PH 5 Pendant
Poul Henningsen developed the PH 5 in 1958 in response to constant changes in the shape and size of incandescent bulbs, creating a lamp that could be used with any light source.
The iconic design is based on the same principles as Henningsen’s three-shade system, which ensures that the light is soft, pleasant, and completely glare-free, making it the perfect dining room table lamp.
Originally, the PH 5 was fitted with red and blue shades to improve the color of the light, however, these have been removed in later designs as modern light sources reproduce daylight much more effectively than they did in 1958.
Available in a number of different color variations, the PH 5 is a much-loved and well-known pendant, that is found in many homes around the world.
Materials: The lower shade is made of spun steel, while the other parts are made of spun aluminum, copper or brass. Comes with a frosted glass diffuser.
