Abstract
A light emitting device (1) comprising at least one LED filament (2) comprising a flexible substrate (3) and a plurality of LED light sources (4) arranged on the flexible substrate (3), and an encapsulation (5a, 5b) encapsulating the plurality of LED light sources (4) and at least a part of one side of the flexible substrate (3), where the at least one LED filament (2) comprises at least one knot (6) in the form of intentional complication in cordage of the at least one LED filament (2), and where the intentional complication in cordage is any one of a fastening made by looping the at least one LED filament (2) on itself or together with a further LED filament and tightening it, and an intentional complication in cordage in which the at least one LED filament (2) is interlaced with at least one further LED filament at right angles to one another.
