Different wattages. 30W, 60W ???
You can get LED replacements, e.g energizer which are good

Never seen fluorescent lamps that short for HF ballast only use, have seem them in flame proof fittings on a gas terminal, but they were around 4 foot long. Are you sure it is fluorescent?
I looked at the advert linked to, not sure, as a LED lamp is never 85% more efficient than a fluorescent. OK maybe 90% less energy compared to incandescent lamps, but putting a LED on a HF ballast if not designed for that use could do a lot of damage, strip tube lights, is not the same as HF fluorescent.

They aren’t fluorescent
You just connect them directly to the mains.
As said , used on shaver lights in bathrooms

As above its a 221mm Tungsten lamp, they can be Opal glass like yours or clear glass, they are a mains voltage lamp 240volt using a S15 lampholder each end
Google 221mm picture light bulb

I wondered if you can purchase Opal glass variant anymore.

60W too.
60W are 284mm.
Well that's what I always thought, a quick google says I've been getting it wrong for years.
I should have some of these 'in stock' as we still have them in our kitchen.
That's roughly what I'm saying.
keep going, We can make a bulb change to 2 pages 
Course we can, for a start they are (well at least they used to be) available in different colour renditions.keep going, We can make a bulb change to 2 pages
