The VL Ring Crown Chandelier by Louis Poulsen is a design from Danish architect Vilhelm Lauritzen, derived from a lamp he created in the 1940s for Radiohuset, the Danish Broadcasting Corporation headquarters. Aiming for an attractive, glare-free, and practical option beyond the classical spherical pendant, this beautiful, easy-to-clean piece diffuses light through glossy, triple-layered, mouth-blown opal glass shades. Keeping the same organic shape as the original, this chandelier displays a set of glass shades around a smooth metallic halo, creating a soft and ambient layer of illumination as well as a more practically focused downlight that brightens spaces with an elegant touch.

When you hear the name Louis Poulsen, you think distinctive modern Danish lighting. From the classic icons of the 1920s to more recent pieces, all Louis Poulsen lighting is created based on a deep-felt respect for architecture, understanding the emotional effect of lighting and the belief that shadow is just as aesthetically important as light. All three aspects manifest themselves in the sculptural layering and comfortable, glare-free light of Louis Poulsen pendants, wall, table and floor lamps.
