Description
Calex has been active for the past 30 years as a lighting specialist, creating high-quality products for the home. This LED GLS filament E27 bulb runs on only 8. W, with an Edison screw cap and a clear glass finish that produces a warm white light. The bulb has the look and feel of an incandescent bulb, with the added benefits of long-life, low-energy LED technology. Each bulb delivers an impressive 1050 lumens.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Calex GLS filament bulb for its vintage-inspired aesthetic combined with modern LED efficiency. Its clear glass and filament design lend a warm, nostalgic glow that works beautifully in both contemporary and traditional interiors. It's ideal in open fixtures, pendant lights, or exposed fittings where the bulb itself becomes a decorative element. Practical styling tips include pairing it with industrial-style pendants or vintage brass fittings to emphasise its retro charm, or using a dimmer switch to adjust the ambience. This bulb is versatile enough to add a touch of character to living rooms, kitchens, or even home offices, making it a smart choice for both style and sustainability.

A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
