Peill & Putzler
Company History
Founded in 1903 through the merger of the Peill and Putzler glassworks, Peill & Putzler became one of Germany's leading manufacturers of art glass and decorative lighting. Renowned for its craftsmanship and innovative use of glass, the company expanded its range in the 1950s with table lamps, pendant lights, wall sconces and ceiling fixtures featuring elegant blown-glass shades and modern designs. During the 1960s and 1970s, the brand gained international recognition, contributing to the evolution of post-war German lighting design through collections that combined functionality, refined aesthetics and high-quality materials. Today, original Peill & Putzler lamps are admired for their timeless design, exceptional glassmaking and historical significance, making them highly sought-after classics among collectors and enthusiasts of twentieth-century lighting.
