PH 6 - 6 1/2 Charlottenborg Pendant Light by Poul Henningsen, Ebbe Christensen & Sophus Frandsen for

Poul henningsen created the three-shade system back in 1925-1926 in collaboration with louis poulsen. In 1931 the four-shade system was launched to create lamps that could be mounted high up and act as alternatives to the often-used chandeliers. This was taken from the louis poulsen standard assortment in the 1940s, but was redesigned in 1979 by two danish architects – sophus frandsen and ebbe christensen – for the exhibition building charlottenborg in copenhagen, just in a bigger size: the ph 6 ½-6. The lamp is in excellent condition. It has been tested and is in working order.
