Louis Poulsen Billiard Pendant lamp

The Billiard Pendant, also known as the 16550 model, is a classic lighting fixture designed by Arne Jacobsen for Louis Poulsen. Originally designed in the mid-20th century, this lamp is characterized by its simple yet functionalist dome shape which directs light downward, making it ideal for pool tables or dining areas. Louis Poulsen is a world-renowned Danish lighting manufacturer founded in 1874.

Today, Louis Poulsen remains a leader in high-end architectural and decorative lighting. While historically independent, the brand was acquired by Investindustrial and is now part of the Design Holding group. Manufacturing for their most iconic designs, including the Billiard, primarily takes place in Denmark to maintain the high craftsmanship standards associated with Danish design history.
