I usually go with clear bulbs but they create too much glare and harsh shadows when installed in my new master bathroom pendant light with exposed bulbs. Every LED I looked at had a metal base that protruded beyond the candelabra sleeves and ruined the look. I listened to four different lamps and they turned out to be the perfect solution. They are matte instead of white, giving them a soft, translucent glow rather than an opaque white light. They've eliminated the harsh shadows that transparent bulbs cast, and they look great with the light on or off. It looks like a recipe for disaster, but all six were intact. They're not as energy efficient as LEDs, but this is a device that's used for less than an hour a day on average, so I don't see this as a major disadvantage.
