Louis Poulsen PH 5 Lamp

Design by Poul Henningsen, 1958.
By Louis Poulsen.

PH 5 provides glare-free illumination and is well-suited to hang low above a table. The design of the visible reflectors ensures that light is directed both vertically and horizontally. Light is diffused through a sand-blasted glass shield located in the lower shade. The inside cone is painted red, and together with the small blue reflector creates a warmer tone of light.

White wet painted suspension with painted white on the underside. Twist-lock design for fast, tool-less relamping. Spun aluminum white wet painted cone with red painted on the underside. Internal shade with matte white finish on the top side and dark blue finish on the underside. Purple rolled aluminum supporting struts. White ceiling canopy which mounts to 4" octagonal junction box. 12 foot long 3-conductor, 18 AWG white PVC covered power cord.
