Designed in 1958 by the renowned Danish architect and designer Poul Henningsen for the Langelinie Pavilion, the PH Artichoke pendant lamp has stood the test of time, remaining an iconic masterpiece of international design even after six decades. Its distinctive shape and innovative design are composed of 72 precisely angled and overlapping "leaves," meticulously crafted to emit a uniform, glare-free light that illuminates any space with unparalleled elegance.
In a testament to the timeless appeal of this classic, Louis Poulsen has collaborated with the esteemed fashion house Fendi Casa to create two new interpretations. The first reimagines the original design with aged brass leaves adorned with Pequin stripes, paying homage to Fendi's iconic pattern. The second interpretation features yellow glass leaves, a nod to the Maison's signature color, infusing the classic design with a vibrant and contemporary twist.
Embodying Henningsen's visionary approach to lighting design, the PH Artichoke pendant lamp transforms any interior with its harmonious blend of form and function. Its unique shape not only captivates the eye but also provides a glare-free, evenly distributed illumination, creating an inviting and sophisticated ambiance. Whether in its original form or the new interpretations by Fendi Casa, this iconic design stands as a testament to the enduring power of exceptional craftsmanship and timeless aesthetics.
