PH 3-2½ Bollard
The PH 3-2½ Bollard is a member of the PH series, made with materials that can endure various weather conditions. Place them along paths at residences or commercial walkways.
Designed by Poul Henningsen in 1926, the PH series is based on the principle of a reflective three-shade system that directs the majority of the light downwards. Each shade is made of hand-blown, opal, three-layer glass, which is glossy on top and sandblasted matte on the underside, resulting in a soft and uniform distribution of light.
Poul Henningsen was a pioneer in the lighting world as the first designer to take a scientific approach to lighting. Working with Louis Poulsen from 1925 up until his death in 1967, his focus on glare-free and soft lighting is still the foundation of Louis Poulsen's lighting philosophy.
The PH light model numbers refer to the shade size. Each top shade had a corresponding set of middle and lower shades.
"...it is an art to make light both economical and glare free." -Poul Henningsen
