1980s Louis Poulsen 'Toldbod' White Metal Pendant.
Originally designed in 1982, the first 'Toldbod' pendant was based on the light distribution of the PH Ellipse reflector: the last street light conceived by Poul Henningsen before his death. Following the design's success, Louis Poulsen has continued to expand the 'Toldbod' line, with additional variations coming to fruition as recently as 2019.
Executed in white painted metal with white PVC cord and matching white 4.75" canopy. This pendant in excellent vintage condition is a rare example of one of the original runs of these lamps and has acquired an attractive patina. Unmarked.
Accommodates 1x 60W equivalent standard US medium base (e26) LED bulb (LED only). Professionally rewired for US electrical with adjustable 60" drop. Not UL listed, but recommended UL listing possible from authorized 3rd party vendor upon request for an additional fee. Contact us to facilitate.
Some age appropriate scuffs, dings, marks, bends and wear as largely shown and noted only for accuracy.
