My good lady has an Ikea Espressivo lamp and is finding the light a bit harsh and I was looking for advice on what bulb to replace the existing one which is this? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Halogen-Bi-Pin-Base-Type-Light/dp/B008X2L9O8 Something that gives decent light but much softer.
"A bit harsh" as in too white? All halogen bulbs are 3200k, so your only option, if you want to keep that fixture, is to get LED bulb. "Warm white" LEDs are usually in 2800-3200K range. You can try getting something like this (2900K, closer to incandescent bulb): https://www.amazon.co.uk/SEBSON®-Wh...qid=1471955552&sr=1-1&keywords=sebson+g4+2.5W
Would a frosted version give softer light? https://www.amazon.co.uk/G4-20w-Hal...4-catcorr&keywords=G4+12v+20W+Halogen+frosted
