Poul Henningsen Artichoke Lamp

Poul Henningsen Artichoke Lamp

The Poul Henningsen Artichoke Lamp combines in a exlusive way the tradition with the modern. The fascinating design consists of a variety of sheets that are arranged flakily, whereby the lights are projected into the room in a unique and, above all, warm effect. The diameter of the lamp is 48 cm and the height can be regulated depending on the height of the room and the own taste.

Besides singular further projects, Poul Henningsen concentrated on light design. Since 1925 he worked for the company Louis Poulsen Lighting, that supported him in his creative works through whole life. For Artichoke Lamp, that he designed for a restaurant in Copenhagen, he was inspired by the warm lights of the old petroleum lamps that he knew from his whole childhood.
