Osram externally coated red pygmy lamps
A rather nice Ebay find last year were these. They look like they had been externally coated after manufacture by Osram, as there is another etch under the coating at the top.

Does the texture feel chalky (spray paint) or smooth (ceramic coating) Smile

These are spray painted. The white etch is usually used an sprayed lamps

@Alex: Not surprised as this was the cheapest way of colouring them rather than ceramic or using real coloured glass
