Originally released with a striking 50cm shade, the PH 80 Lamp returns in a refined, smaller form perfect for contemporary interiors. Featuring Henningsen’s iconic three-layer shade design in opal white, the table lamp bathes any space in inviting, glare-free light, creating a cosy ambience in both work and living environments.
Choose the all-white version for a clean, minimalist look, or opt for the red top reflector for a vibrant colour accent and richer illumination with warmth. The stem’s high lustre chrome finish brings an extra layer of refinement to the classic silhouette. Ideal for a statement console, desk, coffee or bedside table, the PH80 Table Lamp adds radiance and a touch of sculptural poise to any location.
Poul Henningsen is an integral figure in lighting design and architecture, whose revolutionary views on the utilisation of light in the home led to a number of ground-breaking designs.
Collaborating with Louis Poulsen in 1924/25, Henningsen produced the first version of the seminal PH multi-shade lamp, a classic piece of modern lighting design, featuring separate elements which are shaped and assembled in such a way that the bulb is covered and light is directed downward, creating a soft, diffused effect.
Henningsen was aware of the importance of light in urban life, but sought a way to subdue the harshness of electric light while harnessing its mood-altering properties, believing that the aesthetic of an interior is highly dependent on how light is used.
