Weren’t we glad to hear of the reincarnation of the iconic Poul Henningsen Artichoke Light that was sold off for a whopping 18,000 pounds. And now we hear, that news will be stale once the much-awaited 24 carat gold leaf version called PH Artichoke Gold hits the market. It will be sold at an unbelievable 55,648 pounds. A price that lamps will take lightyears to break.
Part of a limited edition concept, the world shall see only 50 of these spectacular light fittings which owe their origination to the Langeliniepavillonen restaurant in Copenhagen approximately half a century ago. The original design was cast in copper with a finish in a matt surface, a basic pattern that has been kept intact even in the new collection that we just told you about.
