The iconic three-shade system of the Louis Poulsen PH lighting series was crafted by Poul Henningsen in 1925/1926 for a Paris exhibition. Henningsen aimed to design glare-free lighting that focused light where it's needed and created gentle shadows. This system evenly distributes light as each shade reduces it equally based on its distance from the source. It's the first lamp using the logarithmic spiral scientific model for light distribution. There are around a thousand variations of the original, including floor, table, wall, and pendant versions.
The mouth-blown white opal glass shades give the lamp a soft look and fill the surroundings with perfect, harmonious, and glare-free light, a signature of the classic three-shade system. These three-layer opal glass shades are glossy on top and sandblasted matte underneath, ensuring soft and uniform light.

The lamp comes with a specific light source (1/100W/A - 19/IF MEDIUM), so use only this type of bulb to ensure proper functioning.
When it comes to maintenance, clean the handblown white opal glass shades gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the glass. For the metal suspension, you can wipe it with a damp cloth and then dry it thoroughly to prevent rusting.
