Description
This is a large globe bulb in amber-tinted glass, with a slim LED filament wound into a spiral that runs up the centre of the glass. It is 17cm long and 12.5cm across, so the round glass becomes a feature in its own right rather than something hidden away inside a shade. It screws into a standard E27 lampholder, draws 4W and gives 270lm at 2200K, a very warm white with a deep, golden glow. With an IP20 rating it belongs indoors, in dry rooms.
We would hang it where the bulb itself is on show: a bare pendant over a dining table, an open cage shade, or a wall light that leaves the glass exposed. The amber glass softens the light and gives a living room, bedroom or café-style kitchen a relaxed evening mood, while the spiral filament adds a detail that catches the eye. At 270lm it is a gentle, atmospheric light rather than a bright working one, so it suits a cosy corner or a cluster of pendants better than a desk or a worktop that needs strong task lighting.
The amber tint covers the globe and fades to a clear neck just above the gold-coloured screw cap. It runs on a 220 to 240V mains supply at 50/60Hz and carries energy class G, while drawing just 4W. It is not dimmable, so put it in a lamp or pendant on an ordinary on and off switch rather than on a dimmer switch. Packed, it weighs 0.149KG. Before you order, check that your shade or lampholder has room for a globe this size: at 12.5cm across and 17cm long, it needs a fitting with generous space around it.
