Louis poulsen brings back poul henningsen’s sophisticated seven-shade glass crown, based on the ph septima 5 with optimized suspension and enhanced glass for better endurance and stability.when exhibited for the first time as a prototype at the danish museum of decorative art (now designmuseum danmark) in 1928, the poetic piece was publically applauded.the shades made of clear glass are treated to appear with alternate clear and frosted fields and are positioned so the frosted fields cover the clear fields underneath, allowing the shades to spread the light in a more diffused manner, while maintaining glare-free, downward directed light distribution. In addition, a neat round glass cup is placed at the top in order to prevent dust etc. From falling into the lamp.based on the ph three-shade system of the ph 5/5, the glass crown has four extra shades inserted between the three basic shades - all seven produced in very delicate, but also strong, italian borosilicate glass.
