Tungsten-filament bulbs were first produced in 1907, but it took five years of improvements before they were truly marketable.
By 1912, tungsten-filament bulbs - also known as a mazda or "squirrel cage" bulbs - were three times brighter and more efficient.
Their intensity and power resulted in new lighting designs like semi-indirect bowl chandeliers which directed and reflected the bulbs' light.
Tip: Install tip up or down. Bulb can fail if pointed horizontally, or at an angle.
