rare large model from the iconic ph hat series, designed to soften and direct light with warmth and elegance

designed by poul henningsen in 1961, the ph hat ‘maxi’ is the largest and rarest version of the ph hat series. Produced by louis poulsen, these sculptural wall lamps are composed of a white lacquered spun-steel shade with a soft rose-tinted interior—a subtle yet effective detail that gives the downward light a warm, reddish hue.

the minimalist hemispherical shade is mounted on a cylindrical base and can be tilted for adjustable light direction. Ideal for bedside, reading, or atmospheric wall lighting. Both lamps can be hardwired or used with a wall plug via their original 240 cm cords.
