Vintage Light Bulbs Are for Making the Evening Fun

106 4
Maybe you’ve noticed these different-looking light bulbs that have started appearing in the last few years. They’re clear, and you can see the filament inside.

The filament looks different too. It doesn’t look like the thin tungsten wire you’ve seen in other light bulbs, and it looks dimmer than the ones you’re used to seeing. You can look directly at it and it doesn’t make your eyes hurt.

What are these bulbs?

They look interesting, but are they any good? Are they expensive? Do they get any brighter? Where can you buy them?

Those are vintage, or retro, light bulbs.

They’re new products that were developed more than ten years ago. They’re deliberately made to look and perform like the earliest light bulbs, from the late 1800s and early 1900s– the period of the earliest electric light fixtures and hybrid gas-electric fixtures. The end of the Gaslight Era. They’re incandescent light bulbs, with one exception that I’m aware of, and they’re meant to be attractive and help set a mood.
