ph 3.5-2.5 color table lamp
Design Poul Henningsen, 1925/2016
Handblown white opal glass, spun aluminum, silk matte brown copper
Made in Denmark by Louis Poulsen
"...it is an art to make light both economical and glare free." -Poul Henningsen
The PH 3.5-2.5 table is a rustic lamp with an extremely high level of detail. In particular, the shade holder is an extraordinary detail that testifies to the precision applied to each and every lamp. PH discovered that the combination of a metal top shade and a lower shade in opalescent white glass was one of the most effective and decorative ways to make use of the light source. The light was directed precisely where it was most needed. It is tempting to refer to the illumination as 'decorative', and it cannot be denied that the table lamp is decorative, irrespective of whether it is switched on or off.
The table lamp is fitted with a metal top shade, whose white lower surface reflects the light gently downwards. In addition to ensuring improved utilization of the effect of the light source, the two mouth-blown lower shades provide pleasant, glare-free lighting in the room as a whole. The frame is painted silk matte brown, giving the lamp the same appearance as the burnished brass lamps typical of the period. For environmental reasons, this burnishing process is no longer used today, but the new solution is almost identical and not as vulnerable to external influences as the original burnishing was.
The top shade is available in yellow, red, green and white - the same colors PH used in his original lamp ranges. In addition, the top shade is fitted with a white-painted, rolled edge that makes the shade appear more voluminous, thus helping underpin the iconic profile of the three-shade lamp.
With the PH 3.5-2.5 table lamp is a great fit for your office desk, living room, dining room, bedroom or any other room. You can be sure the models from this range will provide good, attractive lighting - and help create a decorative and inspiring interior.

Poul Henningsen
Poul Henningsen practiced traditional functionalistic architecture. This led him to focus on what he would become most well-known for; lighting. During the German occupation he became part of a Danish colony of artists living in Sweden.
Louis Poulsen designs are based on the principle that form follows function. Innovative designs and quality materials are instrumental in producing Louis Poulsen iconic lighting.
