The Panthella lamp design is one of Verner Panton's most significant designs, reflecting the Danish architect's larger-than-life personality. He aimed to create an organic-shaped lamp that provides 100% glare-free light, with both the stand and the shade serving as light reflectors.
Panton succeeded by making the Panthella lamp with Louis Poulsen in 1971. The lamp's characteristic shape and ability to reflect soft light from its trumpet-shaped base have cemented its status as a design icon.
The Panthella 160 Portable lamp is a downscaled version of the original design. The lamp is only 160 mm in diameter, making it the perfect size to take from room to room or outside on the balcony or in the garden, where it will look amazing and create a wonderful ambience.
The Panthella collection, designed by Verner Panton, is celebrated for its distinctive, trumpet-like silhouette that gracefully diffuses soft, glare-free light. This same lighting quality is present in the most compact version of the Panthella series: the Panthella 160 Portable Lamp. A refined, scaled-down interpretation of the original design, this iconic, organic form perfectly embodies Louis Poulsen’s commitment to the seamless fusion of form and function.
Take the new and improved version of the Panthella 160 Portable lamp anywhere and enjoy hours and hours of light. It can be recharged using a USB cord and has a more durable, replaceable battery for extended usage. When fully charged, it provides approximately 8,5 hours of light at 100% and up to 79 hours when dimmed to 10%.
First introduced in 2021, the Panthella 160 Portable Lamp continues Louis Poulsen’s tradition of shaping spaces with light. While a contemporary addition, it remains true to the brand’s rich design heritage, seamlessly blending with modern interiors and proving that exceptional craftsmanship stands the test of time.
Even when unlit, the Panthella 160 Portable Lamp is a statement piece. Its sculptural form and carefully curated colour palette enhance any space, adding a refined and artistic touch to the room.
