Shades of different sizes

A PH light takes its model number from the shade sizes. The PH 2/1 Wall pairs an approximately 20 cm top shade with the 1/1 model's lower shades.

Three layers of glass

The shades are made from opal glass in three layers, hand-blown, glossy on the top and sandblasted on the inside. Because the system is reflective, most light falls downwards, in a soft and diffuse distribution.
