Holtkotter Table Lamp Osram Halogen Light Bulb

My husband fell in love with the glass cloud table lamp over two years ago. We bought it at Alexandria Lighting in Old Town and I knew at the time we should probably get a replacement bulb for the inevitable - but we didn’t. So wouldn’t you know on Sunday evening the light quit working. I searched for the documentation about the specific detail for the halogen bulb. But I also realized that this light has a fuse, which could also be the culprit. This lamp has a dimming function and a one touch turn off button at the base. So we decided to go back to Alexandria Lighting and hopefully get the replacements we needed. They had the Osram Halolux Ceram bulb in 100w only - this lamp called for 75. The guy said it shouldn’t be a problem. Let’s hope not. So we got two replacement bulbs and didn’t get the fuse because they needed to see the specific fuse to better identify it. And he thought it was the bulb anyway. We’ve been using the lamp every day for many hours since we bought it. The thing about halogen bulbs is that you can’t touch them, and you’re not supposed to look directly at it either. Thank goodness I kept the literature describing the steps to get this thing taken apart and put back together. It is a very interesting lighting fixture, but sometimes it’s better to have the old fashioned kind.
