The 3D Fireworks Effect
Switched off, the bulb is a mirror-silver vintage ST19 shape. Switched on, it shows a multicolour burst that seems to sit deep inside the glass, an effect Feit likens to an infinity mirror or a starry sky. It is striking, and the decorative value and fun are among the most praised points: people call it captivating and a great conversation piece, and one owner who makes industrial lamps has bought it several times for them. Two details matter. First, the pattern is static. One owner stresses there are no flashing fireworks; the strands of light are fixed, and the colours only appear to shift as you move around the bulb. Second, the view is the same from every side, which suits a lamp in the middle of a room. Colour and appearance draw mixed feedback, largely because the effect is subtle from across a room and can look less vivid than in photos and videos. Seen from a few feet away in a dim room, it looks its best.
