This Peill & Putzler bedside lamp from the 1970s exemplifies German design, where function and form converge in a unified glass body. Crafted from thick, transparent glass with a perfectly cubic shape (10 × 10 × 10 cm), the lamp takes on the presence of a small architectural sculpture. Its polished surface reflects light, while sculpted side patterns introduce a subtle rhythm reminiscent of modernist and brutalist motifs. The top is recessed to accommodate a chrome-tipped reflector bulb (E14), and the original cord features a simple inline switch. The overall condition is very good – the glass remains clear, with no chips, scratches, or signs of clouding. This compact lamp carries the voice of an era that valued expressive simplicity and material honesty. The cubic form, the mass of the glass, and the interplay of light on its surface evoke the spirit of the 1970s, when design objects were created to serve while also providing visual intrigue. Like a fragment of urban architecture, the lamp tells a story of fascination with clarity, repetition, and luminous reflections that shift with the angle and time of day. It can be placed on a bedside table to provide gentle illumination or on a living room console to highlight the decorative quality of glass. The lamp works well with minimalist furniture in light woods, or in contrasting settings – for example, alongside textured textiles or matte black accents. Pairing it with other glass or metal mid-century modern accessories would further emphasize its heritage. The lamp features an E14 bulb socket and comes complete with a reflector bulb. The power cord with inline switch is original. Dimensions are 10 × 10
