About this deal

If you’re looking for a diffused and softer source of light then, frosted bulbs are your perfect option. When Pipkin went to work for General Electric he was assigned the supposedly impossible task of finding a way to frost electric light bulbs on the inside without weakening the glass. It effectively diffused the light to make it softer; however, it decreased the light produced by 15–25 percent. His patents were developed into General Electric's popular Soft-White bulb series that were mass-produced.

He continued to work at NELA for many more years and eventually created the Soft-White light bulb nearly 25 years later. Marvin Pipkin (November 18, 1889 – January 7, 1977) was an American chemist, engineer, and scientist. We, at Grayson Home, offer professional design to help you realize your home's potential and find the correct pieces that minimize your budget. He attended Auburn University, at that time known as Alabama Polytechnic Institute, graduating with a degree in chemical engineering in 1913.

Marvin Pipkin is best known as the inventor of the inside-frost process of bulbs for incandescent lamps, which was developed in 1925, as well as the improved process developed in 1947, which consisted of an application of silica to the inside of a bulb. He then tipped over the remaining three bulbs, which were tempered with his new two-step acid treatment. Following that, he worked for about a year at International Mineral and Chemical Corporation of Bartow, where he was surrounded by college-educated people. Besides the frosted light bulb, Pipkin invented or improved many other products during his career with General Electric.

Pipkin would often clean out the experimental bulbs with another solution of the acid, but in a weaker solution. Without the presence of proper home lightings, your room décor wouldn’t have the same ambiance or feel.

Then, to further demonstrate the effectiveness of his tempering process, Pipkin took bulbs that had not shattered and dropped them again, this time allowing them to fall to the office floor. They are so easy to use, choose the colour to suit the occasion, and you can literally transform any area in minutes.
