Description
Our amber LED vintage bulb pairs an old-style teardrop shape with modern LED filaments. The glass is tinted a warm amber, the slim filaments stand upright inside it, and the screw cap is a brass colour, so the bulb looks good switched off as well as lit. It measures 14.2cm long and 6.4cm in diameter and has an E27 cap, the large screw fitting found on many lamps and pendants. It draws 4W and gives 270lm of warm light at 2200K, a deep golden tone. With an IP20 rating it is made for indoor use in dry rooms, away from bathrooms and the garden.
Because the bulb is meant to be seen, it suits bare pendants, open cage shades, exposed wall lights and table lamps with clear glass shades. It brings a relaxed, café-style warmth to living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms and hallways, and a row of them over a dining table or kitchen island looks especially handsome. At 270lm the light is soft and gentle, so we suggest it for mood and accent lighting, layered with brighter lamps wherever you read, cook or work.
The shade is glass, and the amber tint gives the light its golden cast. This bulb is not dimmable, so it belongs on a standard on/off switch rather than a dimmer circuit. It runs on a 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains supply, carries an energy class of G and weighs 0.096KG packed. To keep the amber glass clear, switch it off, let it cool and wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. A matching spare in the drawer makes for a quick swap whenever a bulb needs replacing.
