Description
This is an LED globe bulb in amber-tinted glass, with a spiral filament coiled around a clear central stem and a brass-coloured E27 screw cap. The amber glass gives the light a honeyed warmth, and the spiral filament is a feature in its own right, so this is a bulb to leave on show rather than hide behind a shade. It draws 7W and gives 700lm, and its colour temperature runs from 2000K to 3000K, the warm end of the scale where light looks golden and candle-like rather than white.
The E27 cap is the large screw cap used on a great many pendants, table lamps and floor lamps, so if your lamp holder takes E27, this bulb screws straight into place. It suits an open pendant, a cage shade or a bare lamp holder where the globe and its filament stay in view, whether in a living room, a dining room, a bedroom or a hallway. Keep it indoors and dry, and let it set the mood in the evening rather than light a desk or a worktop.
The bulb is dimmable, so on a dimmer switch you can bring the light down for a quiet evening and keep the amber glow low and soft. It carries an energy class of F. Because the cap and the shape are the details that decide whether it fits, check two things before you order: that your fitting has an E27 lamp holder with room for a globe, and, if you plan to dim it, that the fitting runs from a dimmer switch.
