Description

Poul Henningsen PH 3-2/5 outdoor wall light for Louis Poulsen. Based on Poul Henningsen's revolutionary reflective three-shade system, which directs the majority of the light downward. The light features spun stainless steel shades with an aluminum mounting plate and cover with a matte white painted interior surface which diffuses the light comfortably.

Price is per item.

UL listed for wet locations. Mounts directly over a 4" octagonal junction box.

The PH 3-2.5 pendant light is part of the three shade system developed by Paul Henningsen in 1925-1926. In this system, the metal shades are painted to ensure comfortable, uniform light distribution that is mainly directed downwards. Henningsen sought to create glare-free lighting and aim the light to where it most needed while creating soft shadows. The pendants were produced in a number of formats and colors with the undersides of shades painted white or gold to provide diffused lighting, and illuminate itself.
