APARTMENT LIGHTING PROJECT: ANTIQUE LIGHT BULBS

In my apartment, there is a simple pendant light fixture hovering over the kitchen sink area with a frosted glass shade and an exposed light bulb. Over the months, I've tried different light bulbs but after writing a blog piece on antique light bulbs, I had an ah-ha moment.

A Quick Primer On Antique Edison-Style Light Bulbs:

  • Antique light bulbs are the vintage-looking exposed bulbs with the intricate, warm filaments you see in restaurants, bars, and hotels.
  • They lend a rustic feel to a room and are also popular in DIY light fixtures that involve wood, metal, and glass.
  • They are available in a variety of shapes, sizes and filament styles, and even energy-efficient LED versions.

My Kitchen Pendant Light

For my fixture, I chose a medium based, Victorian shaped, nostalgic smoke tinted antique light bulb. The bulb looks good even when turned off. It draws the eye and piques the curiosity. Here's the final result:

Can anything else compare? If you just want an aesthetically pleasing light bulb that gives off warm light without causing a glare or giving you a migraine, antique light bulbs are the way to go. We now have the pendant light on every evening, and the apartment becomes warmer and cozier than before. This has got to be the least expensive way to significantly alter the feel of a home space. A single light bulb. Who would have thought?
