Poul Henningsen PH 3, 5/3 manufactured by Louis Poulsen 1940’s

About the Item

Rare Poul Henningsen PH 3,5/3 pendant with a top shade of white lacquered zinc and a middle and bottom shade in two layer opal glass and a top of beautiful natural patinaed brass. The lamp is in good original condition. The PH lamp is the perfect lamp for any style of interior from a traditional Scandinavian style of interior to a more modern style of interior or even an art deco style of interior. Poul Henningsen used many years to study lamps and the perfect lighting to find out how to design a lamp from where the bulb would not be visible and the lamp would create a similar lighting as you would get from a traditional oil lamp. The lamp has been professionally rewired by a Danish electrician.

  • Pierre Forsell Brass Lidded Jar Manufactured by Skultuna
    By Pierre Forsell, Pierre Forssell, Skultuna
    Located in Valby, 84
    Rare and important Pierre Forsell brass lidded jar manufactured by Skultuna in the 1970’s. The lid is made in solid brass with a lid decorated with a mixture of copper and a chrome metal. This jar is the perfect decorative detail for any interior, it will fit anything from the typical Scandinavian interior to a more traditional interior or a more Art deco type interior. Pierre Oskar Paul Forssell, born 1925 in Stockholm, died 2004, was a Swedish designer, craftsman and silversmith. Forssell worked for Gense from 1952–1964 where he designed the Piruett swivel fork (introduced in 1955 on the H55, launched in 1959) and the Spectra cutlery range (1961). He also carried out work for Skultuna Messingsbruk between the years 1955 and 1986, for example the wall sconces Pendel and Reflex. He also designed sacred art in brass, such as crosses and candlesticks, for several church rooms. Skultuna Messingsbruk (literally, "Skultuna Brass Works") is a Swedish manufacturer of brass and brass products. Founded in 1607 at the behest of King Karl IX, Skultuna Messingsbruk is located in Skultuna on the outskirts of Västerås. The logotype of Skultuna consists of the closed royal crown, the name "Skultuna" and the founding year "1607". In the year 1607, King Karl IX could at last implement his long held plans for a Swedish brass industry. He had a man sent off on the Crown's business to find a suitable location for a brass foundry. The choice fell on Skultuna, where the Svartån brook provided sufficient water power. Charcoal was available here as well, there was a harbor in Västerås and the copper mine at Falun was also close. Skultuna Messingsbruk was founded and the king's decision confirmed in a letter dated 11 February 1607. The work could proceed. The history of the brass foundry During the time of Gustav Wasa...

    By Louis Poulsen, Poul Henningsen
    Located in Lejre, DK
    Poul Henningsen's collaboration with Louis Poulsen began as early as 1925-1926, when PH, in partnership with Louis Poulsen, designed the first lamps for an exhibition in Paris. This collaboration lasted until his death in 1967. Throughout his life, PH aimed to create glare-free light, directing the light where it was needed and producing soft shadows using the incandescent bulb as the light source. The PH 3/2 Academy Pendant is part of the 3-shade family, which now comprises 30 lamps, including 3 for outdoor use. PH didn't just design a lamp but an entire system, resulting in approximately a thousand different variations produced over the years. The extensive selection included table lamps, floor lamps, and wall lamps. Additionally, there were various chandeliers that became highly popular as high-hanging lighting fixtures...
