Louis Poulsen PH 3/2 table lamp, aged brass

Poul Henningsen designed hundreds of lamps based on the System PH, which he developed in 1926, enabling unequalled lighting quality for a variety of purposes.

A year later, Louis Poulsen introduced the PH 3/2 variant with Henningsen. Many of Poul Henningsen’s lamp designs feature a number corresponding to the different shade sizes of each lamp. The PH 3/2 is a “hybrid” sized luminaire with an approximately 30 centimetre sized top shade combined with the proportionally smaller lower shades from the PH 2/2.
