This pair of 1970s German table lamps by Peill and Putzler features a circular design made of frosted and clear glass. Six concave indentations on each lamp beautifully magnify and reflect the light.
The lamps have been inspected by an electrician and are fully functional. Each has a white cord with an on/off switch. One lamp retains its original transparent manufacturer's label.
A single E14 Edison screw-in lightbulb is required for each lamp. Using a silver-capped LED bulb is recommended as it helps reflect light outward through the frosted glass.
The lamps are perfect to illuminate a dark corner perhaps on a shelf or on a sideboard.
These lamps are perfect for illuminating a dark corner, shelf, or sideboard. They are in good vintage condition, with a few small, nearly unnoticeable chips.
Peill & Putzler was a German company known for its high-quality glassware and lighting, with a history dating back to the late 19th century. The company was formed in 1947 through a merger of two older glassmakers: Peill und Sohn, founded in 1903, and Putzler, established in 1869.
Peill & Putzler's lighting is particularly noted for its elegant, functional, and often artistic designs. The company was a founding member of the German Design Council in 1953 and collaborated with prominent designers such as Wilhelm Wagenfeld, Horst Tüselmann, and Aloys Ferdinand Gangkofner. Their work often featured innovative, experimental approaches to glassmaking, allowing light to become an art form.
The company produced a wide variety of lighting, including table lamps, pendant lamps, wall lights, and chandeliers. Many of their designs, especially from the 1960s and 1970s, are recognized for their sculptural, globular forms and use of materials like frosted and clear glass, chrome, and silver foil. The company's production moved to other countries in 1995, and it filed for bankruptcy in 2004. Today, original Peill & Putzler pieces are considered vintage and are displayed in museums like the Museum of Modern Art in New York
