G95 Spiral Filament Vintage Bulb E27 40W — 2700K Extra Warm White, 220V, 50,000h
Large G95 globe LED bulb with a spiral filament, E27 screw cap, 40W, and an extra warm amber glow at 2700K. The spiral filament coils continuously through the interior of the 95mm clear glass globe, creating the densest and most visually complex filament pattern in the vintage range — a glowing helix that is visible from every angle. Integrated LED — no bulb to buy separately.

G95 Spiral — The most dramatic filament, globe scale & spiral vs straight vs triangle
The G95 spiral filament is the most visually commanding combination in the vintage bulb range: the largest globe shape (95mm) paired with the most complex filament style. Where a straight filament runs in a single vertical line and a triangle filament forms a geometric structure, the spiral filament coils continuously in a helical pattern through the full interior of the globe — a glowing helix that fills the glass from base to tip and is visible from every angle simultaneously. The effect is a warm, multi-directional glow with a strong visual presence: the filament is not a detail inside the glass, it is the entire interior of the globe. At 40W and 2700K, the light is extra warm — a deep amber that is closer to candlelight than to standard warm white LED. This is the right choice for spaces where the bulb is the centrepiece: a single large pendant drop in a dining room, a floor lamp in a living room corner, or a statement table lamp where the globe and filament are fully visible. At 250–499 lm, the output is atmospheric rather than functional — this bulb is chosen for how it looks as much as for the light it produces. The G95 size means it will not fit inside most standard shades — it is designed for open fittings where the full 95mm globe is visible.
Direct E27 screw-in replacement — no tools required. Rated at 50,000 hours. IP20 — dry indoor use only. Check dimmability before ordering if your fitting has a dimmer switch.

Common questions
What is the visual difference between a spiral, straight, and triangle filament?
+
Straight filament: a single vertical line — clean, minimal, understated. Triangle filament: a geometric triangular structure — more complex, architectural, multi-point. Spiral filament: a continuous helical coil that fills the entire interior of the globe — the most complex, the most dramatic, and the most omnidirectional. The spiral is the right choice when you want the filament to dominate the visual character of the bulb; straight and triangle are more restrained alternatives.
Will the G95 globe fit inside my pendant shade or cage fitting?
+
The G95 is 95mm in diameter — it will not fit inside most standard pendant shades or enclosed fittings. It is designed for open fittings where the globe hangs freely and is fully visible. In a cage fitting, check that the internal cage diameter is at least 100mm to accommodate the G95 without contact. In a bare pendant drop, the G95 spiral filament is fully visible from all angles and creates a striking, warm presence.
Is this the same as the G95 clear filament 2W–8W also in the range?
+
No — both are G95 globes with E27 caps, but they differ in filament style and wattage. The 2W–8W range uses a standard filament pattern and is available in multiple wattages for flexible output. This 40W version uses a spiral filament — a continuous helical coil that fills the entire globe interior — and is a single fixed wattage. Choose the 2W–8W range for flexibility; choose this 40W spiral for maximum visual impact and a fixed, atmospheric output.
Is 250–499 lm enough to light a dining room on its own?
+
250–499 lm is an atmospheric, ambient output — not sufficient as the sole light source for a dining room used for meals and conversation. It creates a warm, intimate pool of light directly below the pendant, which is beautiful for atmosphere but insufficient for functional dining. Supplement with wall lights, floor lamps, or candles for a layered scheme. If you want a single pendant to provide both atmosphere and functional light, consider a higher-lumen bulb from our range.
Does the spiral filament look different when the bulb is switched off?
+
Yes — the spiral filament is clearly visible through the clear glass even when unlit. The helical coil catches ambient light and gives the G95 a distinctive, sculptural appearance at rest. In an open pendant or a lamp without a shade, the G95 spiral reads as a considered design object whether switched on or off — the filament structure is part of the aesthetic, not just a functional component that disappears when the light is off.
