Based on Poul Henningsen’s reflective three-shade system, the PH 2/1 Pale Rose Table lamp provides a soft downward directed light, while emitting a wonderful glow. The pale rose coloured mouth-blown opal glass shades are glossy on top, and in combination with a sandblasted matt opal white lower side, it yields a soft and poetic light.
This table lamp fits into every corner of the home, whether it is on a little table, a shelf or a windowsill, which it will accentuate with an isle of fine light, creating poetic ambience around it.

Description
Poul Henningsen wanted to show people that with his reflective three-shade system, they could have the cosy atmosphere they were familiar with from the glow of the kerosene lamp without having to compromise on the quality of lighting. Many, on the other hand, longed for a warmer and more comfortable light than the light bulbs could provide at the time. The silk however softened the light and created ambience, but at the expense of the light quality. Henningsen and Louis Poulsen saw this as an opportunity to reach out to private customers once more.
Around 1930, Louis Poulsen launched a new and extensive series of PH lamps. They were developed particularly for domestic use, which meant that many came in smaller sizes that could fit in anywhere and which also made them less expensive than the classic PH lamps at the time. To provide people with more warmth and individuality in the home, all of the new lamps were available in amber, red and yellow coloured glass, besides the usual opal white, matt or metal shade variants. The series was a huge success.
