Lighting advice for display cabinet ?

joebre · 2019-04-17 15:58:39

Have a display cabinet with a large display of Waterford crystal. Shelves are glass, allowing the light to shine though. Existing lights are two eyeball fittings with GU10 bulbs. Was wondering if I could upgrade the lighting by fitting cool white LED strips at the top or maybe behind the uprights as well. Recommendations…

Yes you could.
Personally I wouldn’t go for cool white, I would prefer a warm white.

Fit a Colour one and you could change the colour if needed. Only a few euro for a 5 m roll on Amazon.
