Designer / Manufacturer

In the case of the Louis Poulsen Toldbod 120, designer and manufacturer are the same: the design coming from the nimble pens of the Louis Poulsen design team. Thus the cone shaped pendant light is based in the almost 100 years of expertise of the Danish manufacturer. Established in Copenhagen in 1874 as the wine import company "Kjøbenhavns direct Vin Import Kompagni" the contemporary Louis Poulsen began with the production of lamps in 1924 - following a fateful meeting between the then company director and the architect and designer Poul Henningsen. The philosophy of the Louis Poulsen company is and was to create products that are simple and functional and which serve the well-being of people. In this context the company has developed an extensive portfolio ranging from the classics such as the PH Henningsen lamps or works by Arne Jacobsen and onto contemporary works such as the LC Shutters by Louise Campbell
