Description
A round opal white LED lamp in the classic bulb silhouette, sized to be seen rather than tucked away behind a shade. It runs at 4W and gives a warm 2700K light, the low honey-toned white that suits evening rooms, with 320 lumens spread evenly all round. The opal surface softens the light behind it, so what you see is a lit ball rather than a bright point, with no hard glare when it catches you at eye level. The cap is E27, the larger of the two screw fittings.
We reach for a lamp like this in open fittings, where the shade is a cage, a hoop or simply a cord drop and there is nowhere for the light source to hide. It looks right in a run of pendants over a dining table, in a hallway pendant, or standing in a table lamp with a bare frame. It dims, though it wants a dimmer made for LED loads if you want it to run smoothly down to the quiet end of the scale, and that dimmer is bought separately; ask us and we will suggest a match. Keep it to indoor fittings on the usual household supply.
The finish is opal white across the whole body, so it looks of a piece whether the lamp is lit or sitting cold in a holder. Dusting is quick: switch off at the wall, allow it a moment, then run a dry cloth over the surface and leave sprays and polishes out of it. It carries a three year warranty. We think it looks best in a group at staggered heights over a table, or alone in a plain holder where the shape does all the work.

Frequently Asked
How big is it?
It measures 125mm across the widest part of the globe and 174mm from the tip of the cap to the crown, so allow room in narrow shades and small holders.
What sort of dimmer does it need?
One rated for LED loads. Older resistive dimmers designed for filament lamps can cause flicker or a limited dimming range. No dimmer is supplied with the lamp.
How warm is the light?
It is 2700K, a warm white with a slight amber cast, and it holds that tone as you dim it down rather than turning cold.
How long should it last?
It is rated at an average life of 15,000 hours, which is several years of everyday evening use in a hallway or dining pendant.
Can I use it outdoors or in a bathroom?
No. It is intended for dry rooms indoors, in fittings suited to that use.
Will it fit a standard screw holder?
Yes, it takes the E27 large screw cap found on most pendants, table lamps and holders sold in the UK.
