Description
A clear glass globe with a mirrored chrome crown, this is a lamp meant to be seen rather than tucked away. The chrome sits across the top, so from below you get the clear glass and the warm glow, while from the side the crown reflects the room back at you. The light is warm white at 2700K, close to the colour of an old filament lamp, and it draws 4W. It dims with a compatible dimmer, so you can take it down low in the evening rather than living with one fixed brightness.
We reach for this one where the lamp is part of the look: open pendants, cage fittings, a bare flex drop over a kitchen island, or a multi-arm fitting where several globes sit in a row. At 80mm across it is one of the smaller decorative globes, which keeps it in proportion inside a compact shade or a narrow glass cylinder. The screw cap is the standard E27, so it goes into most household pendants and table lamps without fuss. It suits anyone moving away from older incandescent globes who wants the same warm colour for a fraction of the power.
Glass carries the light and the chrome finish caps the crown, and that pairing is what does the styling work here. It carries a three year warranty. For cleaning, dust shows on the mirrored top long before it shows on the glass, so give it an occasional wipe with a dry lint-free cloth once the lamp is cool enough to handle, and keep sprays and metal polish well away from the cap. A suitable dimmer is needed and is not supplied. If you are running several globes in one room, we would order them together so the crowns all match.

Frequently Asked
How much light does it give out?
330 lumens of warm white light at 2700K, spread over a wide 180 degree angle, which suits open fittings where the globe is on show.
Will it work on my existing dimmer?
It is a dimmable lamp, but it needs a dimmer suited to low-wattage LED loads. At 4W it draws very little, so older resistive dimmers built for filament lamps may flicker or refuse to strike. No dimmer is included.
What size is the globe?
It is 80mm in diameter and 120mm tall overall, including the E27 screw cap, and weighs 45g.
How long should it last?
It is rated at an average life of 15,000 hours.
Can I use it outdoors or in a bathroom?
No. Keep it to dry indoor rooms on a normal 220-240V household supply.
Does the chrome top block the light?
It reflects light downward rather than up, so the useful output falls below the lamp. That is the point of the shape in open pendants, where it takes the glare out of eye level.
