Fairy lamps that make your home full of high-level sense -- Danish classic "pine cone lamp"
PH Artichokes are also called "Pinecone Lights" because they are similar to pinecones. Through the mutual refraction of each leaf, the light source is softly and evenly scattered in the space. There is one hanging under the ceiling of many Danish families.

From weather to people, Northern Europe always gives a kind of painting style of "frigidity", but the design of Northern Europe is always imaginative, and works of perfect combination of art and function can be seen everywhere in their lives. Louis Poulsen was born in 1874 in Nordic Denmark as a lighting brand. This century old brand, formerly a wine import company, has gradually devoted itself to the development of lighting related systems as Denmark began to build power stations and power supply systems. In 1924, the designer Poul Henningsen began to cooperate with Louis Poulsen and began to sell lamps two years later.

During World War II, Poul Henningsen designed a rotatable Tivoli lamp (blackout lamp), which was placed in the Tivoli Garden in Copenhagen. The garden can be open until midnight. The light from the lamp can not be seen by enemy planes flying over the city. After several years of operation, the lamp continues to provide light, but no longer rotates. Until the spring of 2008, Louis Poulsen created 01 new Tivoli lamps for the park, rotating according to the original design intent of Poul Henningsen.

The design of the pineal lamp comes from a small story: one night, when his mother was looking in the mirror, she inadvertently complained, "This newly bought electric bulb makes my wrinkles so obvious, and I feel that it has wiped away my youth.". The light of the new electric light bulb at that time was very strong, highlighting her old style. The speaker was careless and the listener was intentional. Poul Henningsen decided to make a lamp at this moment. This lamp should be able to use all bulbs, and the color temperature effect should be close to the natural flame, just like the beauty of sunset. Finally, there is the pine cone lamp PH Artichoke.
