Peill & Putzler ‘‘Cirrus’’ glass ufo pendant

This vintage glass pendant light often referred to as Lido or Cirrus by Peill & Putzler is a refined example of German lighting design from the mid-20th century. Its sculptural shade is crafted from opaline glass, gently flared into a wide, floating form that diffuses light softly and evenly. When illuminated, the glass glows with a warm, inviting tone, emphasizing the lamp’s elegant contours. A distinctive decorative trail flows organically across the surface, adding subtle movement and individuality without overwhelming the minimalist silhouette. The pendant is suspended from a simple cord and metal fitting, allowing the glass shade to remain the clear focal point. Timeless and understated, this Peill & Putzler pendant blends beautifully into both vintage interiors and contemporary spaces, making it an enduring design object that reflects the brand’s reputation for quality craftsmanship and thoughtful use of glass.
