Description
Made from smooth opal glass, our Petite Idea E27 Bulb brings a soft, rounded shape to the fittings we stock. The frosted finish diffuses light gently across its small spherical form, and we like how the opal surface hides the workings inside so that all you see is an even, milky glow. Compact at 4.8cm in height and 4.5cm in diameter, it sits neatly within pendants, wall lights and open fittings where the bulb itself stays on show. The standard E27 screw cap means it threads into any of the fittings we range around this size, and at just 0.019kg it adds almost nothing to the weight a shade or arm has to carry.
We have specified a 6W LED that draws on 220-240V at 50/60 Hz and returns 810 lumen, giving plenty of output from a bulb this small. The colour temperature sits at a warm 2700K, which we find suits living spaces and relaxed corners rather than task areas, and the CRI of 83 keeps colours reading naturally under the light it casts. This bulb is rated for 25000 hours of use, so it should run for a long stretch before it needs changing. It is dimmable too, letting us pair it with a compatible dimmer switch when a lower, quieter level of light is wanted late in the evening.
This bulb is tested to CE standards and rated for indoor use, so keep it to dry, sheltered fittings rather than anywhere exposed to weather. Because the opal glass stays attractive when lit, we often reach for it in fittings that leave the bulb visible, though it works just as happily hidden behind a shade. It is a straightforward, well made bulb that we are glad to offer as a dependable part of the lighting range we put together here at Niori.
