PH 5 Pendant Light
The designer‘s considerations in the construction of the PH 5 pendant luminaire are still bearing fruit today, as the PH 5 pendant luminaire can easily be operated with almost all standard bulbs (incandescent lamp, halogen energy-saving lamp and LED illuminant). Thanks to the bayonet closure, the light source can be easily replaced, even at an already mounted PH 5 pendant light.

Lamp shades and diffuser of the PH 5 suspension lamp shield the light source and thus ensure a glare-free light. At the same time, the light reflection creates a pleasant and atmospheric zone light that brightens the immediate surroundings and recommends the PH 5 pendant light by Louis Poulsen for illuminating tables and hallways. A clip-on canopy makes cables and power connections disappear in a simple and elegant way.
Designer Poul Henningsen himself commented on the creation of the PH 5 lamp with the following words: “After 33 years of fundamentally Christian behavior, I have converted to Islam in relation to my broken relationship with the manufacturers of light bulbs. For a long time I believed that consumer consideration and common sense would predominate, but now I’ve become a fatalist. I have accepted fate and, with the approval of Louis Poulsen, designed a PH luminaire that can be used with any kind of light source – light string or 100 watt metal filament lamp. Although a fluorescent tube in the existing form would be too much!”
In the TAGWERC Design STORE you get the pendant lamp PH 5 as well as its smaller sister, the pendant lamp PH 5 Mini and the anniversary lamp PH 50 in all available versions of licensed manufacturer Louis Poulsen. Spare parts for the PH 5 pendant lamp are also available from TAGWERC.
