About This Piece

Vintage Design

PH Artichoke Ø720 Stainless Steel was designed by Poul Henningsen in 1958. He was commissioned to design a pendant light for the Langelinie Pavilion Restaurant in Copenhagen with a specific request that it be 100% glare-free. His ingenious solution of 72 leaves in 12 straight rows provides a totally glare-free light, no matter what angle you look at it from. Today, the pendant is considered a design icon that is loved and known all over the world, while it still adorns the Pavilion in Copenhagen. The PH Artichoke has also been nicknamed 'The Cone' due to its distinctive appearance.

The lamp is a great example of Poul Henningsen's visionary approach to design, with a focus on the impact of light on the environment and a sense of beautiful aesthetics. Despite more than 60 years in the making, the pendant hasn't lost any steam. with its sculptural appearance and pleasant light combined with an increased interest in Danish design classics, the lamp is definitely relevant in today's modern interior design.
