Description
This is a decorative LED lamp in the classic ST64 teardrop outline, with gold-tinted glass that softens the view of the light source and gives the bulb a warm amber cast even when switched off. The colour is very warm, at 2200K, closer to candlelight or an old filament lamp than to ordinary warm white, so the light it throws is honeyed rather than crisp. It draws 6.5W on an E27 screw fitting and spreads its light all round rather than in a beam.
We reach for this one where the bulb itself is part of the look: open pendants, cage and cluster fittings, bare-flex drops over a kitchen island, and table lamps with no shade to hide behind. The tone suits evening rooms, snugs, dining tables and bar areas, and it flatters brass, copper and dark timber. It is not dimmable, so pair it with a plain on-off switch rather than a dimmer plate, and choose it where you want atmosphere rather than task light. For reading or worktops, we would put a brighter, cooler lamp alongside it.
The body is glass with the gold finish carried through the envelope, fitted to a standard screw cap. To clean, switch off at the wall, let it come down to room temperature, then wipe the glass with a dry microfibre cloth; skip sprays and polishes, which mark the tint and can creep into the cap. It runs on a normal household mains supply and belongs in dry rooms indoors, away from steam and weather. It carries a five year warranty. We like a pair or a trio of these hung at staggered heights on plain black flex, and we stock them singly so you can add one at a time as older lamps come to the end of their life.

Frequently Asked
How bright is it?
It gives 630 lumens, which is modest and deliberately so. As a very warm decorative lamp it is best used for atmosphere, in multiples, or alongside brighter light for tasks.
Will it work with a dimmer?
No. It is a non-dimmable lamp, so it should be run from a standard switch. On a dimmer circuit you may see flicker, buzz or an early failure.
What size is the bulb?
The glass measures 64mm across at its widest point and the lamp stands 143mm tall overall, including the E27 screw cap.
Does the gold glass change the colour of the light?
Yes, that is the point of it. The tint takes the edge off the source and warms the light further, giving a soft amber glow that suits vintage-style fittings.
How long should it last?
It is rated at 15,000 hours of average life, and it carries a five year warranty.
Is it suitable for a bathroom or outdoor lantern?
We would keep it to dry indoor spaces. Damp, steam and driving rain are not conditions for a decorative glass lamp of this kind.
