AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The PH 5 lamp is an icon of Danish design that has gained enormous popularity around the world. PH 5 was designed by the renowned designer and architect Poul Henningsen in 1958 and is still manufactured by Louis Poulsen to this day. The form of the lamp was designed based on the principle of a reflective system that directs the light not only downwards, but also sideways, illuminating the lamp itself. PH 5, thanks to its structure, provides diffused and non-glare light in a warm tone.

Dimensions:
diameter: 50cm
height: 27.6cm

The lamp is in very good condition, it has some some naturale traces of time.

The lamp has been thoroughly cleaned and the cable has been replaced with a new, braided one. The lamp comes with a new metal canopy.
