FAQ
What bulb does this lamp use?

It takes an E27 compact fluorescent or LED bulb. A bulb is not mentioned as included, so check with the maker if you need one.

How does the lamp arrive and how is it installed?

It ships flat and self-inflates when you install it, with a black internal frame and ceiling rose included.

Can I customize the cord length or color?

Yes, the cord comes at a standard 150cm in black but can be customized upon request.

What is the lamp made of and how do I care for it?

It's made from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), a lightweight, recyclable, air-filled material with a matte finish and folded edges for a fabric-like look. The maker can confirm specific care instructions — use Chat with the maker on this page.

How long does it take to receive this piece?

It's made to order and usually ships in 1-2 weeks.

Can I return this piece if I change my mind?

Made-to-order pieces like this one are excluded from the standard 14-day return policy, so check with the maker before ordering.

Will this lamp work with my home's electrical setup?

The maker can confirm plug type and wiring compatibility for your country — use Chat with the maker on this page.

What colors is this lamp available in?

It comes in black or cream white.

What is a pendant light?

A pendant is a single light fixture suspended from the ceiling on a cord, chain or rod, usually with one shade and one light source. The defining characteristic is that it is designed to be repeated: pendants are commonly hung in twos and threes over a surface, where a chandelier is a single composed fixture intended to work alone.

What is the difference between a pendant light and a chandelier?

Count the fixtures rather than the bulbs. A chandelier is one object with multiple arms, elements or lamps built into it, hung centrally as the focal point. Pendants are individual fixtures, often identical, positioned in a line or a cluster — the composition is created by how you arrange them, not by the piece itself. Pendants are also easier to scale to an awkward room, since you can add, remove or space them as needed.

How high should pendant lights hang above a kitchen island or dining table?

75–90 cm from the surface to the lowest point of the shade in both cases, on a standard 2.4 m ceiling, adding a little for each additional 30 cm of ceiling height. The check differs by position: at an island you are usually standing, so the light source should be hidden from standing eye level and the shade should not block the sightline of anyone seated on the other side. At a table you are seated, so sit down and look across it — you should see the person opposite, not the fixture. Taller households generally want the upper end of the range.

How many pendant lights do I need over an island?

One for an island up to roughly 1.2 m, two up to 2.4 m, three for anything longer. Larger shades mean fewer of them. If you are choosing between two medium pendants and three small ones, the smaller row usually looks more deliberate over a long island, and a single generous piece is often the best answer over a short one.

How far apart should pendant lights be?

Divide the island or table length by the number of pendants plus one, and set the centers at those points — typically 60–80 cm apart. Keep the outer pendants at least 15 cm inside the ends of the surface. Even spacing matters more than any particular figure; an off-center row is the most visible mistake in this category.

What size pendants should I choose for an island?

Keep the total combined width of the pendants to about half or two thirds of the island length. Mini pendants under 30 cm work in rows of three; 30–45 cm is the standard range for a pair. A single pendant over a short island can go considerably larger, since it has nothing to compete with.

Should pendants be centered on the island?

Centered across the width, yes, and spaced evenly along the length. Two complications come up in practice: existing ceiling boxes rarely sit where you want them, and joists limit where a new one can go. Establish the wiring positions before ordering, since a handmade pendant cannot be nudged 20 cm after installation.

Can the cord length be adjusted?

Usually. Most studios supply extra cable that an electrician shortens on site, and many will make a specific drop length to order — useful for stairwells, double-height kitchens and low ceilings alike. Send us the ceiling height and the position you have in mind and we will confirm what the maker can do.

Do you have plug-in pendant lights?

Rarely. Almost everything in this collection is hardwired, since that is how designers intend these pieces to be installed. A plug-in conversion or swag kit fitted by an electrician is sometimes possible, but it changes the look and is not something we can promise for a given piece — ask us before buying if a plug-in solution is your only option.

Can I use a pendant in a bathroom or outdoors?

Not from this collection. Bathroom and exterior positions require rated, sealed fixtures appropriate to the zone, and the requirements differ by country. These are handmade decorative pieces for dry interior use — including in covered porches, where condensation and temperature swings will affect ceramic glazes, paper, fiber and untreated metal.

Can I mix different pendants over the same surface?

Yes, and it often works better than a matched row. The reliable approach is to keep one variable constant — the same maker, the same material or the same silhouette — and vary the rest. Hanging three unrelated pendants together tends to read as indecision rather than curation.

Which pendant materials suit a kitchen?

Glazed ceramic, glass, brass, copper and steel wipe clean and tolerate the heat and humidity of a working kitchen. Woven natural fibre, paper and textile shades are beautiful over a dining table but absorb cooking grease, so avoid hanging them directly above a hob. Ask us for the maker's cleaning guidance for any specific piece.

Description

Winner of a 2017 GOOD DESIGN Award, the Big Puff Pendant Lamp by PUFF-BUFF grew out of a fascination with lightweight structures that use air as a building material. It joins innovation, bold shape and a sense of fun, casting a beautifully diffused light.

The lamp is made from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) filled with air, its geometric form softened by gentle folds at the edges for a fabric-like appearance. It is finished in warm white matte TPU with a black cord (150cm as standard, customisable), black internal frame and ceiling rose. Recyclable, and made in Poland.

Delivered flat, the lamp self-inflates on installation. Fitted for an E27 compact fluorescent or LED bulb.

About PUFF-BUFF Visit Showroom →

PUFF-BUFF was founded in 2004 by Anna Siedlecka (designer, experimenter, design curator) and Radek Achramowicz (designer, architect, lecturer). Since then PUFF-BUFF designs and produces innovating lighting, acclaimed as „MADE OF AIR”. The original idea is based on pneumatic technology and it uses AIR, most ecological and renewable substance, as a building material.The air captured in thin membranes gains extraordinary strength and gives the lamps a unique look and fascinating properties: light weight, flexibility, portability, raw-material efficiency, breakage-resistance. PUFF-BUFF lamps are also really energy efficient, thanks to LED and other energy-saving light sources used, together with specially designed electronics. XXL structures made by PUFF-BUFF are extremely lightweight so they can be used in delicate ceilings and wherever conventional, heavy fixtures are not suitable. Instagram account: @puffbuff_lightingPUFF-BUFF gained several awards for design and product innovation, including Good Design Award. Co-founder Anna Siedlecka was honoured with 40 UNDER 40, the award for 40 most promising young European designers in 2009. The lamps and chandeliers by PUFF-BUFF hang and shine in many interior design projects around the world.The manufacturing process base on European materials and small local companies and craftsmen. Founders of PUFF BUFF are actively involved in the design and production and devoted to idea of lightweight light. All PUFF-BUFF lamps are finally assembled by hand in a studio-lab in Warsaw with love and lots of care for each detail.PUFF-BUFF’s flagship lighting system the Bubbles, enables production of custom-made lighting, including large-size ones. These XXL structures are in fact PUFF-Buff's speciality. The biggest chandelier made till now was 8m high (26 ft). This result is waiting to be beaten :-)
