Poul Henningsen’s much-loved PH 3/2 Table Lamp helped set new standards for the effectiveness of table lamp lighting. The PH 3/2 Limited Edition 2025 in Dusty Terracotta features glass in a recreated version of the original colour, providing a slightly warmer light. The stem and details are in lacquered aged brass, resembling the original PH lamps, complete with PH’s signature.
The Danish designer introduced the PH 3/2 Table Lamp in collaboration with Louis Poulsen in 1927, not long after he developed the System PH, which enabled unequalled lighting quality for a variety of purposes, as the basis for hundreds of future lamp designs.
Many of Poul Henningsen’s lamp designs are named with a number that correspond to the different shade sizes. The PH 3/2 is considered a “hybrid” lamp, featuring a top shade that is approximately 30 centimetres, combined with proportionally smaller lower shades from the PH 2/2. Henningsen designed the PH 3/2 Table Lamp to provide optimal lighting and create a warm atmosphere, effectively forming an island of pleasant light on a table, dresser or windowsill.
