Is it possible to built a clear glass lightbulb with a hot glowing filament that will illuminate surrounding objects, without using any actual lights, only materials?

I've tried several glowing objects that do work as expected, until I place that glowing object inside a glass object. then It doesn't seem to work.

Can anyone help me out, thank!

As I understood, in a rush, a made simpliest scene in the world, just to test something to help you (I hope)

... there's no light in the scene. The scene is iluminated by the Architectural material, setup: Diffuse color to WHITE, and ost important in order to illminate the scene make LUMINACE cd/m^2 to 5000
.. for glowing effect, I used Glare
