Text on the left of this page:
The luminaires presented in this catalogue supplement round off the program of new items shown at the Hanover Fair.
They are without exception luminaires that derive their very special appeal, on the one hand, from glass technology and the craft tradition of glassmaking, and on the other hand from their form. Here, design is understood as a balanced unity of individual beauty and universal practicality.
As in the domestic sphere, such Putzler luminaires also radiate a homely, individual atmosphere in all other rooms where people meet.

Peill + Putzler
Glashüttenwerk Peill und Sohn was founded in 1903 in Düren, a small town in (West) Germany. Peill und Sohn merged with Putzler (founded in 1869) in 1947 as a glass works and lighting company and became Peill + Putzler Glashüttenwerke.
The company always worked with important designers such as Wilhelm Wagenfeld, William Brown, Helmut Demary, Aloys Ferdinand Gangkofner, Horst Tüselmann and many others.
In the 1950s 1500 people were working for the company. They also produced glass for other light companies in Europe, such as Raak, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
In 1995 the production of glass and lighting moved to Slovenia, Poland and the Czech Republic. Only the trading of lamps en glass stayed in Düren. 1 year after the 100th anniversary in 2004, bankruptcy was filed.
In 2008 the name Peill + Putzler was re-used for several years for among others the Wagenfeld lighting of the German lighting company of Paul Neuhaus.
Today the Peill + Putzler factory is called Glashütte Düren and is converted to many other businesses and conference centre.

This lamp is model AH 182. In the catalogue pictures on this page it is model 1318. What is not clear is that these lamps are advertised as new items in the 1976-1977 catalogue, while they were actually produced earlier in the 70s, given the old type numbers on these lamps.
