Description
This amber LED globe bulb gives an old-style look with modern efficiency. Each round globe of amber-tinted glass holds a spiral filament that coils up the centre, set above a brass-coloured E27 screw cap. It draws 6W and gives a colour temperature of 2200K, a deep, golden warm white that sits closer to firelight than to the crisp white of an everyday bulb. It is dimmable, and it carries an energy class of G.
Because the filament and the glass are the point, this bulb is made for fittings that leave it on show: a bare pendant over a kitchen island, a cage or open shade above a dining table, a wall light in a hallway or a lamp on a bar shelf. The amber glass softens the light, so the room takes on a gentle glow rather than a bright one, which suits evenings, restaurants, cafés and snug living rooms. Turned down on a dimmer, it settles into a low, cosy light for supper or a film.
The globe shape and the spiral filament give the bulb its character whether it is lit or not, and the amber tint keeps a warm colour to the glass even in daylight. Before you buy, check that your fitting takes an E27 cap, the standard large Edison screw cap found on many pendants and table lamps, and that it has room for a globe of this shape. If you plan to dim it, pair it with a dimmer switch that suits LED bulbs. The bulbs come as a pack, so a row of pendants can share the same glow.
