Product Information

The Louis Poulsen PH Artichoke Pendant Light, designed by Poul Henningsen in 1958, stands as one of the most significant achievements in lighting design history. Originally created for Copenhagen's Langelinie Pavillonen restaurant, where it still illuminates diners today, this masterpiece transforms the principles of illumination into sculptural art.

The fixture's genius lies in its precise construction of 72 leaves arranged in 12 unique rows. Each leaf is carefully positioned to achieve Henningsen's vision of completely glare-free illumination from every viewing angle. This intricate arrangement creates a mesmerizing interplay of light and shadow, while concealing the light source within its organic form. Much of the production process remains hand-executed in Denmark, ensuring exceptional craftsmanship in every piece.

Available in multiple sizes and finishes – including brushed stainless steel, white painted metal, and the iconic copper with rose interior – the Artichoke adapts to various architectural settings while maintaining its distinctive presence. Larger versions create dramatic statements in grand entryways and double-height spaces, while smaller models offer intimate illumination over dining tables or in living areas.

Each PH Artichoke represents Louis Poulsen's commitment to honoring Henningsen's philosophy that shadow is as crucial as light in creating ambiance. The fixture's continued presence in prestigious installations worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection, affirms its status as both a functional masterpiece and an enduring design icon.
