PH 5 Retake
The fixture is a retake on a classical PH 5 and has been stripped of all its previous paint, thus appearing raw and untouched.
The bare metal inner shades give a particularly gentle light reflection, delivering a warm and cosy ambience.
The lower shade is furthermore fitted with a frosted diffuser glass to ensure that the downward directed light is 100% glare-free.
With a firm belief in recycling and upcycling, Louis Poulsen is continuously working on new ways of reusing products and materials. This includes transforming flawed products into treasured new lamps. The raw PH 5 Retake, which is based on the classic, best-selling PH 5, is a perfect example.
The transition process from a vintage or imperfect PH 5, with a dent or slight surface irregularities-to a one-of-a-kind PH 5 Retake involves removing the paint from each pendant.
At the end of the process, the PH 5 Retake is coated with a dry lubricant to protect its metal parts. Without further treatment, the metal will patinate beautifully over time, giving each pendant its own characteristic expression.
