Louis Poulsen VL45 Radiohus Portable Light

Louis Poulsen VL45 Radiohus Portable.

Designed by Vilhelm Lauritzen. Based on the iconic VL45 Radiohus pendant, this portable version is specially designed for outdoor use, or indoors for ease of use.

The portable version has the same mouth-blown glass shade and brass details as the pendant, and therefore exudes luxury and timeless elegance. Furthermore, the portable comes with a premium leather strap for easy carrying or hanging.

The special character of the mouth-blown glass is clearly visible in the small imperfections, such as bubbles, variations in thickness and subtle colour gradations, which contribute to the charm and authenticity.

The beautiful opal white glass is three-layered, while the light pink and yellow versions are four-layered due to the extra layer of colour involved.

Lighting concept: The luminaire provides uniform, general and diffuse lighting. The light is directed downwards through the opening at the bottom of the glass. The quality of the glass ensures that the luminaire is evenly illuminated.
