Danish vintage PH 5 pendant lamp by Poul Henningsen, 1958

The PH 5 is an iconic Danish pendant lamp designed in 1958 by renowned Danish designer and architect Poul Henningsen for the lighting manufacturer Louis Poulsen. It has been produced by Louis Poulsen ever since and has become one of the most recognisable examples of Danish lighting design. The lamp features Henningsen’s signature multi-shade reflective system, which directs light not only downwards but also sideways, gently illuminating the shades themselves. This construction produces soft, warm and diffused light without glare. With its distinctive layered design, the PH 5 combines functional lighting with a timeless form. It works well above a dining table, in a kitchen or in a living room, fitting naturally into both contemporary interiors and spaces inspired by mid-century design. **Dimensions** Diameter: 50 cm.
