Ph lamp by poul henningsen for louis poulsen in a unique royal blue color. This particular ph5 lamp most likely comes from the 1970. It is one of the most famous pendant lamp designs hailing from denmark, created by architect poul henningsen for the lighting manufacturer louis poulsen. First introduced in 1958, the ph5 has since become an iconic piece of mid-century modern design. The purpose of the ph5 design was to provide glare-free lighting, achieved by the lampshade with several concentric shades working together to diffuse the light and prevent any harsh glare.
the lamp also features a curved, trumpet-shaped reflector, which directs light downwards, creating a soft, warm glow. Over the years, louis poulsen has produced the ph5 in various colors, with the most famous being white and later editions in blue, red, and orange. The presented one is in royal blue and features orange and white details in the construction.
overall, this lamp is in very good vintage original condition without any significant scratches or dents. The color reamains extremely vibrant. It retains the original wiring with a 140 cm cord, which can be adjusted to your needs.
the ph5 is still in production today and remains a versatile lighting option that can fit in a range of interior designs—both residential and commercial. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
