Large Artichoke pendant lamp, designed by Poul Henningsen for Louis Poulsen. A masterpiece of Danish design, the Artichoke lamp is one of Henningsen’s most celebrated and iconic creations, recognized worldwide for its sculptural beauty and ingenious functionality. Suspended by an ivory enameled-steel canopy, the interior chrome cylinder is surrounded by layers of precisely arranged brushed copper leaves, which are carefully configured to emit a bright, even glow without glare. This intricate design, reminiscent of an artichoke, diffuses light beautifully, making it both a functional fixture and a piece of art. Our fixture is in fine working condition with a lovely patina, and no damage to the leaves. Retaining the original paper label, it stands as a testament to Henningsen’s brilliance. Denmark.
