Story
Designed in 1961
Poul Henningsen designed PH Hat in 1961 and it was first manufactured in two sizes.
Rose coloured shade interior
The inside of the shade is rose coloured, which gives the light a warm tone. The fixture emits indirect, 100% glare-free light that varies with the angle of the screen.
