Description
Amber glass gives this small candle lamp a low, honeyed light rather than anything crisp or white. It draws 4W and puts out about 470 lumens, which is plenty in a multi-lamp fitting and gentle enough on its own. The envelope is drawn up to the traditional pointed candle tip, and the cap is E14. It is dimmable, so paired with a compatible dimmer you can bring the level down towards candle height in the evening, with the tinted glass keeping the tone warm all the way.
We reach for this one where the lamp itself is on show. Chandeliers, small wall lights, clear lantern fittings and table lamps under a narrow shade all suit it, because the amber body reads as part of the design rather than something to hide away. At 2200K the colour sits well under ordinary warm white, nearer firelight, which flatters dining rooms, snugs and bedsides late in the day. It suits anyone swapping out older decorative filament lamps who wants the same mood on a much smaller power draw.
It is a slight, light lamp, so it sits comfortably in fine chandelier arms and narrow candle holders without looking overfed. For cleaning, switch the circuit off, let the glass cool in its holder, then wipe it with a dry lint-free cloth; no solvents and nothing damp. Do bear in mind that a suitable dimmer is needed for smooth control and is not supplied with the lamp. It carries a three year warranty. We would buy these in sets of three or more, since a row of amber tips does as much for a room as the light they give.
