Candle Bulbs

The only difference between the traditional standard GLS (General Lighting Service) bulb and a candle bulb is the shape. The candle bulb was designed purely for decorative purposes to mimic a real candle where it is appropriate for the decor. This type of bulb is obviously suited to a home or venue that is traditionally styled. They are great for creating a warm and inviting tone in hotels, rustic pubs and homes that have a classic decor. You will generally find candle bulbs in chandeliers, vintage styled wall lights or exterior lanterns to name but a few.
