A round globe bulb earns its place in a fitting where it is designed to be seen. The exposed pendant above a dining table, the floor lamp with no shade, the statement cluster in a hallway: these are fittings where the shape and glow of the bulb itself contribute to the room's character. The globe forms do this better than any other shape in the range.
Dulora's dimmable globe range covers G80, G95, and G125 forms in E27 and B22 bases across Extra Warm 2200K, Warm White 2700K, and Soft White 3000K. CRI 90 to 97+ across the range, with select premium models reaching CRI 97+ for near-perfect warm-tone rendering.
All 230V dimmable models are compatible with a quality trailing-edge LED dimmer LED Light Dimmers. For mirror crown variants that reduce glare in exposed fittings, see Mirror Crown Bulbs. For oversized statement forms, see Oversized Bulbs.

Globe Bulbs: Choosing the Right Size and Finish for Your Fitting
G80, G95, or G125: which globe size suits my fitting?
The number is the diameter in millimetres. G80 is the most compact and works well in multi-bulb clusters and smaller pendants where a larger globe would overwhelm the fitting. G95 is the most versatile and the most popular: large enough to be a visual feature, proportional enough for most standard pendants and floor lamps. G125 is the statement option for large-scale pendants, high-ceiling installations, and fittings designed around an oversized bulb.
As a starting point: G95 for most applications, G125 where scale permits, G80 for clusters and compact fittings.
Do globe bulbs work well on a dimmer?
They benefit from one more than most shapes. A globe bulb at 15 to 20% on a good dimmer produces a warm, sculptural glow that transforms the quality of a room in the evening. The combination of round form and low-level amber light is the closest an LED comes to the character of a vintage incandescent.
All dimmable Dulora globe bulbs work with a trailing-edge LED dimmer from 1 to 100% without flicker. See LED Light Dimmers.
Clear or frosted glass in a globe bulb?
In globe forms, the choice matters more than in smaller bulbs because the surface area is larger and more visible. Clear glass shows the filament structure and produces a warm sparkle. Frosted glass creates a soft, even luminous sphere with no visible internal element. For exposed fittings where the bulb is the focal point, clear delivers more visual character. For fittings where a softer, more diffused glow is preferred, frosted is the better option.
