Description
Large Vilhelm Lauritzen VL45 'Radiohouse' pendant for Louis Poulsen. Executed in hand blown glossy white opal glass, brushed brass pendant tube, white metal canopy and custom cloth cord. Uses one standard 100w maximum bulb. This is the largest size of the 3 variants made.
The Radiohus pendant was originally designed in the 1930s by Vilhelm Lauritzen in partnership with Louis Poulsen for the construction of the Radiohuset building on Frederiksberg, Copenhagen, which is now home to the Royal Danish Academy of Music. It was originally used for general illumination in many parts of the Radiohuset building. And with its powerful downwards light combined with gentler illumination via the opal glass, which generate softer tones in the room, it is simply ideal for illuminating both everyday objects and more decorative items. -
