Technical details of filament bulbs

The filament bulb is a decorative product, but it is also a product that allows you to limit your energy consumption. Indeed, buying a filament bulb means deciding to control your electricity consumption.

The Edison incandescent bulb

LED filament technology imitates the filament of the incandescent bulb, invented by Edison in 1879. The incandescent bulb was banned from sale, but the filament is making a comeback because it gives lamps a vintage, retro feel. Thanks to LED filament technology, a new page of decoration is being written in a house, a restaurant or an industrial loft.


The incandescent bulb has been replaced by the LED filament reflector bulb. The reflector bulb is a spotlight with a very long life and low energy consumption. However, this LED spot reflector does not have the same decorative function as the LED filament lamp.

Lifetime and energy consumption of the LED filament lamp

The advantage of the filament LED bulb is twofold: the charm and authenticity of the filament on the one hand, and the optimisation of energy consumption on the other. In fact, these bulbs consume very little energy, unlike halogen. Halogen, although similar to incandescent bulbs, is a big energy consumer. LED filament bulbs also have the advantage of a very long life.

Technical characteristics of LED bulbs

These bulbs offer a wide light distribution angle and a homogeneous light distribution. By choosing a dimmable bulb, you can adjust its light intensity, whether it is white or amber tinted glass. In addition to the fact that your LED bulb is dimmable, you can also check its luminous power, expressed in lumen, when you buy it. The luminous power, which is measured in lumens, is one of the technical details you will find for each product: 160 lumens, 130 lumens, 90 lumens, etc.

Finally, on the packaging of your product, you will note the type of base of the bulb. The screw base, E27 or E14, is the most common and corresponds to the diameter of the screw, the letter E corresponding to the first letter of the inventor of the filament: Edison.  

The LED filament bulb is a type of lamp that offers very good value for money. Moreover, because it is dimmable, you can adjust its light intensity according to your needs, the room or your fixtures. For the same price, you can create different moods by simply adjusting the intensity and brightness level of your lamp.

How and where to install a decorative LED filament bulb?

You have as many decorative choices as there are filament bulbs. Indeed, a dimmable LED bulb, a bulb with a twisted filament or a bulb with an amber tinted glass will not bring the same decorative note to your interior or your exterior.

•     Enjoy an orange coloured lamp. The amber glow caused by amber-tinted glass is a warm and relaxing light. This decorative globe or flame lamp will create a cosy atmosphere indoors or outdoors.
•     Magnify a filament bulb with a lampshade. You can enhance this light atmosphere by inserting your bulb in a designer lampshade. The metal lampshade with opening is an original product available in stock in your shop or online with delivery to the address of your choice.
•     The filament bulb as a standard lamp. If you buy an original filament, such as the fir tree filament or the twisted filament, you will not need a lampshade, the bulb is sufficient on its own. Simply mount it on a coloured textile cable to create a design suspension. To increase the decorative effect, choose a spherical, tube or flame-shaped bulb.
•     Filament bulbs to create unique and decorative lamps. Luminaires, table lamps, bedside lamps and designer suspension lamps are all items that are enhanced by filament bulbs.

To show your originality in a luminaire or to control the level of light in a room, buy a designer filament bulb. With a smoked or amber glass, placed on a white or grey base, the filament bulb is an undeniable decorative asset.
