The fixture is based on Poul Henningsen’s renowned three-shade system. It reflects the light downward while also emitting a soft glow around itself. The pale-rose-colored, mouth-blown, opal-glass shades are glossy on top and sandblasted matte-opal white underneath, which results in a gentle and poetic light.
The PH 3½-3 Pale Rose Brass Pendant aligns well with nowadays, where discreet but clear lighting with a cosy ambience is often preferred. Henningsen also had a soft spot for the pale rose tint and how it could diversify the appearance of a lamp and its light. At around the same time, he created a particularly delicate variant of his seven-shade glass crown Septima, named the Rosa Septima. Three decades later, he used the same faint rosy hue on the inner sides of the beautiful copper shades of the iconic PH Artichoke. Today, the dimensions of the PH 3½-3 Pale Rose Brass Pendant gives it an almost universal fit, which makes it very versatile and suitable for almost any spot in need of a stylish touch together with an even distribution of very fine light.
