PH 5, Opal

The PH 5 Opal is a new take on Poul Henningsen's PH 5, with an opalescent expression from its slightly translucent, glossy material. Inspired by classic PH opal glass shades, the semi-translucent shades give a softer, more diffused and ambient light, with an omnidirectional and uniform brightness over a larger area.

Henningsen created the PH 5 in 1958. Based on his three-shade system, the fixture sends light both downward and sideways and illuminates itself, so the light is soft and glare-free.

Designer Poul Henningsen (1894-1967) was a highly influential Danish designer, architect, writer, and cultural critic, renowned for his pioneering work in lighting design, which remains integral to Louis Poulsen’s heritage. Born in Copenhagen to writers Agnes Henningsen and Carl Ewald, Henningsen initially practiced functionalist architecture but became famous for his innovative lighting designs. During WWII, he briefly served as the head architect for Tivoli Gardens before fleeing to Sweden, where he joined a community of Danish artists. Brand

Established in 1874 as a lighting manufacturer, Louis Poulsen has become one of the world's leading producers of lighting. This success is attributed to collaborations with renowned designers and architects like Arne Jacobsen, Øivind Slaatto, Poul Henningsen, and Verner Panton.
