Story

A cordless PH 2/1

The PH 2/1 Portable is the cordless counterpart of the classic petite PH 2/1 table lamp. It keeps the mouth-blown opal glass shades, and the stem and base are made in either high-lustre chrome or metallised brass.

Glare-free light by design

Poul Henningsen worked to create glare-free light, to direct light where it is most needed and to create soft shadows. The PH 2/1 Portable is built on the principle of a reflective three-shade system, which gives harmonious, glare-free lighting, and its dim-to-warm function adjusts the light for different activities.
