Vintage & Edison Globes

The About Space Edison globe range

Vintage light globes have a certain charm that’s hard to resist. Their unique shape and design can add a touch of character to any space. And, thanks to the popularity of retro-inspired decor, they are now more widely available than ever before.

But you no longer need to use a real vintage globe to get the vintage look. LED Edison bulbs have the same look, while being energy and cost-efficient. While they may not have the same nostalgic appeal as a vintage globe, they offer a number of advantages that make them worth considering.

For one thing, they last much longer than traditional bulbs, meaning you won't have to replace them as often. And, because they use less energy, they’re better for the environment. So, if you're looking for a way to add some personality to your space and save money at the same time, consider investing in some LED Edison light globes.

Choosing the right Edison globes

When deciding on the right globe, there are a few things to keep in mind.

First, Edison bulbs come in a variety of shapes and sizes. The most important thing is to make sure the globe fits the fixture you’re buying it for. After that, it’s best to stick to more traditional shapes. Although as Edison globes are designed to be exposed, you can have a little fun with shapes and sizes to make a statement.

Second, dimmable or non dimmable. Not all Edison bulbs are dimmable and it’s important that you understand that this isn’t a necessity in a lot of cases. If you’re using the bulb in a multi-use space, pick a dimmable option to adjust your lighting and mood when needed.

Finally, you want to choose a globe with the right colour temperature. Edison globes have a lot of character and it's a quality which makes them a go-to. Generally, Edison globes will be on the warmer side - from 2,700K to 4,000K. Stick with this range for ultimate ambience.
