PH Snowball pendant
Description
The PH Snowball pendant light, designed by Poul Henningsen in 1958, has been manufactured by Louis Poulsen since 1983. The PH Snowball is distinguished by its layered structure of rounded shades that reflect light in an expressive yet soft manner. The glossed top surfaces and matted undersides create together a glowing effect, and the non-glossy undersides prevent reflections and glare.
The PH Snowball is a smaller version of the PH Louver pendant, which Henningsen designed for the Adventist Church in Skodsborg, Denmark. With a diameter of 15.75 x 0 in (40 x cm, cm), the PH Snowball is an elegant choice for placement above dining tables and sofa sets.

Poul Henningsen (1894–1967) was a renowned Danish designer. He studied at the Technical School in Frederiksberg from 1911 to 1914 and continued his education at the Technical University of Copenhagen from 1914 to 1917. Henningsen began his career as an architect, but gradually shifted his focus to lighting and lamp design. Later in his life, he also worked as a journalist and writer.
Henningsen’s long-standing collaboration with Louis Poulsen began in 1925 and continued until his death. His ingenious lighting designs remain a cornerstone of Louis Poulsen’s collection to this day. He also served as the first editor of Louis Poulsen’s corporate magazine, NYT. Henningsen’s work explored the structure of light, shadow, reflection and color rendering – themes that still influence the company’s design philosophy.
