A light-emitting device includes a substrate mounted with a light-emitting element, and a frame disposed on the substrate. The frame includes a first frame portion disposed on the substrate and surrounding the light-emitting element, and having an inner wall surface substantially perpendicular to an upper surface of the substrate, an upper end of the inner wall surface being positioned at a level higher than that of an upper surface of the light-emitting element, and a second frame portion surrounding the inner wall surface of the first frame portion when viewed in a plan view, and having an inner periphery which is so shaped as to extend at an outward incline from a lower end of the inner periphery to an upper thereof. The light-emitting device includes a wavelength converter supported on the frame and opposed to the substrate with a gap. |
