PH Artichoke Pendant

72 metal leaves form 12 precise rows of six leaves each, ensuring a flawless non-glaring light no matter from which angle the pendant is viewed. The name refers to its characteristic design, which distributes light both inwards and outwards.

Asked to develop a pendant for the state-of-the-art Copenhagen restaurant Langelinie Pavilion in 1958, it took Poul Henningsen only three months to finish the PH Artichoke.
