Description
The PH 80 Floor & Table were put into production after Poul Henningsen's death, as a celebration of what would have been his 80th birthday had he lived. The PH 80 fixtures were made of opal acrylics, instead of glass, with the intention of making a less expensive product with the same lighting characteristics as a glass fixture. Being a man of the future, Poul Henningsen had been working with plastic materials as the new material for his fixtures shortly before his death. However, since he died in 1967, the quality of plastic materials at that time was not satisfactory. It was not until the mid 1970s that the plastic materials and work processes had developed to such a level that the shades could be made smooth, thus achieving the right quality.
