He studied architecture between 1911 and 1917, but never graduated, as he decided to become an inventor and painter. Nevertheless, he worked as an architect and became one of the most prominent advocates of functionalism. In his career as a designer, his most famous creation was the "PH Artichoke" lamp, a simple lamp that used hallmarks of light to avoid glare and create an aesthetic effect of great beauty. Its success enabled Henningsen to finance his later work. He is currently representing at the Danish Museum of Art and Design, the MoMA in New York and the Victoria & Albert in London, among many others. In perfect condition.

Poul Henningsen began his prolific career in lamp design in the early 20th century.

The original Koglen shades were developed for the Langelinie Pavilion restaurant in Copenhagen. The PH Artichoke is a classic icon of 20th century Scandinavian design.
