Description
A clear glass lamp in the old rustic shape: a slender tube with rounded shoulders and a drawn tip at the crown, on an E27 screw cap. Drawing 4W, it gives a warm white 2700K light with around 470 lumens behind it. The glass is left uncoloured, so the workings inside stay on show and the light carries a little sparkle rather than a flat wash. The tipped crown is a nod to older candle lamps, and at this modest width it slips into fittings that would look crowded with a globe.
We reach for this one wherever the lamp itself is part of the look: open pendants, cage fittings, glass lanterns and bare flex drops over a kitchen island. It also earns its place in table lamps and wall lights where the shade stops short of the cap. Light spreads all the way round the glass rather than firing forward, so a row of them over a dining table reads as an even glow. The warm tone suits sitting rooms, bedrooms and snugs, and it is a sensible choice for hallways and landings left on for long stretches, where the low draw counts. It is not dimmable, so keep it on a standard switch.
The body is glass throughout, finished clear, with the cap in metal. Let it cool before you unscrew it, and give the glass an occasional pass with a dry cloth, since dust shows more on a clear envelope than it does on opal. It is meant for dry rooms indoors, running on ordinary household mains. It carries a three year warranty. We keep it as one of our standard screw cap lamps, and it looks right against plain brass or matt black fittings where the glass is meant to be seen.

Frequently Asked
What size is this lamp?
It measures 106mm tall overall, so it suits fittings sized for a slim tubular lamp rather than a large globe.
How bright is it, and how does that compare to an older lamp?
It produces about 470 lumens from 4W, which reads as a gentle, lamplight sort of brightness rather than a task light.
Can I use it with a dimmer?
No. It is a non dimmable lamp, so it should be run from a plain on/off switch.
What colour is the light?
2700K warm white, the softer, slightly golden tone most people expect from a sitting room or bedroom lamp.
How long should it last, and is it guaranteed?
It is rated at 15,000 hours of average life and carries a three year warranty.
Will it fit a bayonet fitting?
No. It has an E27 screw cap, so the fitting needs a large screw socket rather than a push and twist bayonet.
