Hanging copper Poul Henningsen PH4/4 1930's original Louis Poulsen Denmark Rare
Located in Forest, BE

The lamp remain in excellent condition and is ready to be used as she got a new cable in cotton. You can see lots of patina and traces of time. It becomes really hard to find a good PH lamps these days. _____________________________________________________________ Poul Henningsen est le fils illégitime de l'auteure Agnès Henningsen et de l'écrivain satirique Carl Ewald. Il a passé une enfance heureuse dans une maison moderne qui a été souvent visitée par les intellectuels de la région. Entre 1911 et 1917, Poul Henningsen suit une formation d’architecte sans pourtant en obtenir le diplôme. Durant les années 1920, Poul Henningsen a fait sa percée littéraire. Il a édité la revue Kritisk Revy (1926-1928, "Examen critique») dans laquelle lui et ses collègues méprisent le style ancien et le conservatisme culturel, reliant ainsi les thématiques politiques de l'époque . En même temps, il débute comme écrivain pour une revue sur les bienfaits d'une vie simple, en harmonie avec la nature et une sexualité plus libre . Il était l'homme qui a fait des revues danoises des armes politiques au service de aile gauche sans abandonner son caractère de divertissement (la soi-disant PH-revues 1929-1932). En 1933, il édita son ouvrage le plus célèbre Hvad med Kulturen? ("Qu'en est-il de la culture ?") Une critique polémique, audacieuse et urgente de la vie culturelle danoise avec son snobisme et sa nostalgie du passé, en dépit de tous les efforts de la percée du modernisme. Il a essayé de faire un parallèle entre la pruderie, moralisateurs et penchants fascistes; il a également accusé les sociaux-démocrates de manquer d'une ligne culturelle ferme et conséquente. Ce livre ainsi que ses activités dans son ensemble lui ont donné une réputation de semi-communiste ("compagnon de route"). Dans cette période, il se tenait en fait proche des communistes sans les rejoindre. Il a participé à la propagande anti-fasciste, en essayant toujours de faire des connexions entre la culture et la politique. Parmi ses autres initiatives durant cette période, il y a eu Danmarksfilmen en 1935, (en français : Le Film du Danemark) aussi connu comme Danmarksfilm PH. C'est un film sans prétention et non traditionnel dépeignant la vie contemporaine dans le Danemark d'une manière vivante et un peu irrespectueuse dans lequel les visuels sont saccadés par les rythmes de jazz. Il a été condamné et déchiré par la plupart des critiques, mais il est plus tard réhabilité et est devenu l'un des classiques des films documentaires danois. Il a également écrit des manuscrits de films. Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale et l'Occupation allemande du Danemark il a gardé un profil bas et s'est enfui vers la Suède en 1943. Après la guerre, il s'est dissocié du communisme qui lui reprochant son humanitarisme de façade dans son attitude lors de l'accord conclu avec les nazis ainsi que pour son scepticisme croissant au sujet de l'Union soviétique et à bien des égards, il a été isolé. Cependant, il a continué à écrire et à débattre, et au cours des années 1960, la nouvelle génération à de nombreux égards a fait de lui une sorte de gourou. Dans ses dernières années, il est devenu un membre de l'Académie danoise et a soutenu le nouveau mouvement des consommateurs. À bien des égards, Poul Henningsen est l'homme qui a achevé les travaux de Georg Brandes...

Vintage and Antique Lighting for Sale: Unique Table Lamps, Floor Lamps, Sconces and Other Lighting for Your Home

The right table lamp, outwardly sculptural chandelier or understated wall pendant can work wonders for your home. While we’re indebted to thinkers like Thomas Edison for critically important advancements in lighting and electricity, we’re still finding new ways to customize illumination to fit our personal spaces all these years later. A wide range of antique and vintage lighting can be found on 1stDibs.

Today, lighting designers like the self-taught Bec Brittain have used the flexible structure of LEDs to craft glamorous solutions by working with what is typically considered a harsh lighting source. By integrating glass and mirrors, reflection can be used to soften the glow from LEDs and warmly welcome light into any space.

Although contemporary innovators continue to impress, some of the classics can’t be beat. 

Just as gazing at the stars allows you to glimpse the universe’s past, vintage chandeliers like those designed by Gino Sarfatti and J. & L. Lobmeyr, for example, put on a similarly stunning show, each with a rich story to tell.

As dazzling as it is, the Arco lamp, on the other hand, prioritizes functionality — it’s wholly mobile, no drilling required. Designed in 1962 by architect-product designers Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, the piece takes the traditional form of a streetlamp and creates an elegant, arching floor fixture for at-home use.

There is no shortage of modernist lighting similarly prized by collectors and casual enthusiasts alike — there are Art Deco table lamps created in a universally appreciated style, the Tripod floor lamp by T.H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, Greta Magnusson Grossman's sleek and minimalist Grasshopper lamps and, of course, the wealth of mid-century experimental lighting that emerged from Italian artisans at Arredoluce, FLOS and many more are hallmarks in illumination innovation

With decades of design evolution behind it, home lighting is no longer just practical. Crystalline shaping by designers like Gabriel Scott turns every lighting apparatus into a luxury accessory. A new installation doesn’t merely showcase a space; carefully chosen ceiling lights, table lamps and floor lamps can create a mood, spotlight a favorite piece or highlight your unique personality.

The sparkle that your space has been missing is waiting for you amid the growing collection of antique, vintage and contemporary lighting for sale on 1stDibs.
