Description

These vintage-style string lights hang twelve big C9 bulbs along a single run, each one the full, tapering shape of the classic Christmas lamp. Every bulb sits in a black cap with a small hook on its side, and the bulbs are joined by a red and white braided cable that suits the retro look rather than hiding from it. The lit section runs for 2.2m, enough to drape across a mantelpiece, loop along a shelf or wind down a short banister, and a 5m lead cable comes before the first bulb, so the lights can begin well away from where they are connected.

Big bulbs like these are made to be seen up close, so we would put them where people gather indoors: along the fireplace, across the top of a dresser, framing a hallway mirror or running along a bookcase in the sitting room. They also look wonderful wound loosely through the branches of a Christmas tree, where each bulb stands out on its own instead of blending into a haze of tiny points of light. Twelve bold bulbs give a cheerful, nostalgic note to a room that already has its fairy lights, and they sit just as happily in a modern home as in a cottage full of old favourites.

Each shade is a smooth, rounded C9 shape with a soft satin look, capped in black where it meets the cable, and the braided cable gives the whole set a cosy, old-fashioned feel. To keep them looking their best, switch the lights off and disconnect them before dusting the bulbs and cable gently with a soft dry cloth, and keep them dry. For the fullest effect, space the bulbs evenly along your mantel or tree and let the cable show between them, because it is part of the charm.

Frequently Asked

How many bulbs are on these string lights?

There are twelve large C9 bulbs spread along a lit length of 2.2m, each with its own black cap and the classic tapering shape.

How long is the lead cable?

A 5m lead cable runs before the first bulb, so the lit section can start well away from the point where the set is connected.

What does C9 mean?

C9 is the name for the large, tapering bulb shape seen on classic Christmas lights, much bigger and bolder than the tiny bulbs on a fairy light set.

Can I use these lights outside?

We suggest keeping them indoors on a mantel, shelf, banister or tree, as the details we hold for this set do not state that it is suitable for outdoor use.

Will they work on a Christmas tree?

Yes, the 2.2m lit run winds well through the branches of a smaller tree, or adds a bold accent to a larger one, with each bulb standing out clearly.

How should I clean them?

Switch the lights off and disconnect them first, then dust the bulbs and the braided cable gently with a soft dry cloth, keeping them away from water.
