I use Quasar Science A Series LED's in my room. They have a phenomenal CRI/TLCI/CCT measurement. Measurements can be found here: http://indiecinemaacademy.com/complete-led-color-database-cri-tlci-cqs-tm30-15/
Bulbs: https://www.quasarscience.com/collections/a-series-led/products/a-series-medium-base-household-bulbs?variant=3582653571
My walls are also painted with spectrally neutral paint: http://www.rpimaging.com/munsell-neutral-gray-paint.html
Edit: Also if you get those bulbs and want to turn them into dimmable "smart bulbs". Take a look at getting one of these. https://www.amazon.com/Lutron-P-BDG-PKG2P-Wireless-Lighting-Kit-Enabled/dp/B011PHGURS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1460642331&sr=8-1&keywords=B011PHGURS or if you just want a cheap LED dimmer look at this https://www.amazon.com/Lutron-TTCL-100H-BL-Credenza-Dimmable-Dimmer/dp/B004DZONXI/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1506395376&sr=8-9&keywords=lutron+led+dimmer
Lutron CL dimmers have no issues with Quasar Science LEDs and are recommended by them as well. You can even swap out your existing wall dimmers with them: https://www.amazon.com/Lutron-DVWCL-153PH-WH-Dimmable-Dimmer-Wallplate/dp/B004C2WTLU/ref=sr_1_3?s=lamps-light&ie=UTF8&qid=1506395557&sr=1-3&keywords=lutron+cl
Looks like overheating.
As I see it, your options are as follows;
More airflow. Put a small fan pointing at the lamp to help cool it down.
Move it to someplace cooler. Hard to do though... it’s not like all rooms have a spot that’s cooler than the rest
Lower wattage bulb. They make 20W bulbs that you could try. This could do the trick well, or it could not get hot enough to make it flow. No real way to tell until you put down the money and try it. If it doesn’t work, then your stuck with a bulb that has no use.
Lamp dimmer switch such as this one. This is the overkill method. This will DEFINITELY fix it and allow you to tune the lamp for various conditions. Like... room is colder in the winter, needs more heat. Room is hot in the summer, needs less heat. But this is almost as expensive as the lamp.
Sell this on Craigslist or something, buy a new lamp and roll the dice again.
