Description
The exposed copper bulb is a decorative lighting element based on copper that has aged and developed a patina. It looks like a bulb shaped fixture made from exposed copper and it works well as a vintage styled light or ornament on ceilings and posts. The bulb gives a warm look that suits historic and industrial builds where a slightly worn metal finish is desired. Because it is part of the copper family it shares the ageing states and can be used alongside other copper blocks to create a cohesive patina effect across a design. The bulb is purely decorative and it does not emit light unless combined with a light source such as a lamp or other glowing block. For themed builds the exposed copper bulb makes a convincing detail for market stalls antique interiors and places that need a touch of rustic charm.
