My vote is linestra S14d base. Here's a wall sconce that uses the same bulb as a point of comparison.


Apartment Therapy New York | Good Questions: Bulbs For These Light Fixtures?
3/14/08 5:27 PM

We actually carry Moooi at YLighting; I had asked them about this fixture specifically awhile back- as it is currently wired, it is not suitable for use in the US. Please do not buy overseas and simply replace the bulbs with 110V US ones as you run the risk of fire. From what I understand, the wiring is not suitable for the amperage that would run though it when used with US voltage- basically, voltage and amperage are inversely related, so when you lower the voltage (from European 220V to US 110V), you double the amperage and this fixture's wiring can't handle that load. Hopefully they will have a US model one day- I'll let you know if/when it comes out.
