Designer pendant light PH 5 in a modern monochrome look provides diffuse light The classically striking design of the famous PH 5 pendant light is complemented by the monochrome colours and matt lacquered lampshades with a contemporary look. Thanks to the interesting three-shade system, the light reflects itself again and again. The majority of the light generated is emitted downwards, creating a completely glare-free effect and bathing the room in a cosy atmosphere. The beams of light emitted to the side ensure that the entire room is discreetly illuminated and that the light itself also begins to shine. The delicate connecting rods made of rolled aluminium give the light a special touch and underline the variety of shapes of the PH 5, which complement each other perfectly and are rounded off with the uniform colouring. This pendant light is a real lighting accessory, particularly in living and dining areas, providing good ambient lighting in addition to its attractive appearance. The PH 5 pendant light was designed in 1958 by the Danish designer Poul Henningsen. It was his response to the constantly changing forms and sizes of traditional light bulbs. It owes its name to the size of the main shade, which has a diameter of 50 cm. The designer lived from 1894 to 1967 and created numerous designer lights for the traditional Danish company Louis Poulsen, which has been producing designer lights for over 100 years.
