Absolutely ugly! We had CFLs in fixtures like these with bell-shaped glasses. GE Helicals. They still worked and all and they started off almost full brightness but they stuck out too much so we put in A-shaped MaxLite CFLs which look much nicer but take as long as an HID to warm up!

never a great look when the bulb protrudes from the refractor/glass.

This is the type of fixture that should only have clear incandescents in it!

Even frosted ones would be fine but this is ridiculous. I don't know how many people did they attract by this ad. Confused

I wouldn't want clear incandescents in this because of the glare. I only like clear lamps in fixtures where the lamp isn't in direct view. Although I am warming up to clear lamps (now that they're banned lol).

Those CFLs look too big on that chandelier.

This is from a 2009 banner of a local lighting company. I don't know what they found so cool on spirals sticking out like this.
