In an opal glass ceiling light, it softens the output, limits glare and hides the bulb. Opaline models combine this glass with a metal frame, with an E27 or E14 socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOpaline and opal glass, what is the difference?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth terms refer to the same diffuser material. Opaline names the milky glass itself, opal glass refers to the piece mounted on the light.
