<p>Many have asked us if the exposed-filament bulbs, reproductions of  Thomas Alva Edison’s first light bulb will be available in a few years.</p>
<p>So far the answer is yes.<br />
Because they don&#8217;t produce enough  light they are considered specialty bulbs and are not included in the  higher federal efficiency standards that gradually begin taking effect in 2012,</p>
<p>Aware of  the need to conserve energy, it is my recommendation to use these wonderfully warm vintage lights only as accents.<br />
Use the more  efficient light sources for the majority of the illumination for your home.</p>
<p>We will be adding more of these bulbs to our site in the next days at prices of around $10 each.</p>
<p>They actually last quite a while, and in my opinion are a low-cost way of adding ambience to a space, just like candles.</p>
<p>Follow our blog for more <a href="../../blog">News from the Lighting Front. </a>And never hesitate to contact us for answers to your lighting questions.</p>

<p>One of the things that make them special is of course the old-world filament bulbs that add atmosphere and a warm glow.</p>

<p>The Otto pendant by Tech Lighting is a new introduction.<br />
I really enjoyed all the unique colors it comes in &#8211; and ordered all of them for our showroom at the recent Dallas Market. It was just too hard to choose!!<br />
The Otto pendant  has a wonderful hand-etched, mouth  blown outer transparent glass shade with an inner glass diffuser.<br />
The outer  blown glass is hand-etched after it has cooled. Its inner white glass  helps diffuse the light and adds depth to the fixture without washing  out the color of the transparent outer glass.<br />
A sophisticated, well-balanced addition to a variety of rooms.</p>
