PH mirror by Poul Henningsen for Louis Poulsen
Available and in good condition
This PH Boudoir Mirror, designed by Poul Henningsen and produced by Louis Poulsen, traces its origins to the 1930s, a period in which Henningsen was redefining the role of light in the modern home. Conceived as both a mirror and a source of gentle illumination, the design reflects his enduring pursuit of glare-free, comfortable light and his belief that functional objects should enhance everyday life.
Round in form, the mirror is framed by a painted metal surround and the mirror glass is illuminated from behind, creating a soft halo of indirect light around the glass. This backlit effect provides an even, flattering illumination ideally suited to its intended purpose as a boudoir mirror, while lending the piece a quiet, sculptural presence. Refined detailing and balanced proportions exemplify the elegance and restraint that characterize Danish functionalism.
Produced by Louis Poulsen, the mirror stands as a rare and distinctive expression of Poul Henningsen’s innovative approach to lighting. Nearly a century after its original conception, the design remains remarkably modern, uniting utility, atmosphere and timeless Scandinavian sophistication.
