Product Description
These Mexican Punched Tin Cone Lamp Shades with Geometric Motifs are sold as two handcrafted shades measuring approximately 15 inches in diameter by 8.5 inches high, made in Central Mexico from hand-punched hojalata tin with a smoke-bronze antique pewter satin finish. Their flared cone form, rolled and hemmed rims, open bottom, small top vent, chevron flights, dot-and-diamond bands, and cross-floral rosettes create patterned light with warm sparkle while helping shield glare at normal sightlines. Designed for spider or harp fitters with UNO adapter compatibility, these punched tin cone shades suit bedside lamps, consoles, side tables, pendant adaptations, and covered outdoor spaces, bringing authentic Hacienda, Spanish Mission, Southwestern, and rustic character to your lighting. Add handcrafted geometric glow to your space today.
Material and Craft
Hand-punched tin/steel sheet (hojalata) is cut, formed, and soldered inside. Edges are rolled/hemmed for rigidity and safe handling. A brushed satin smoke-bronze/pewter patina mutes glare and reveals handwork. One burnished back seam sits flush, preserving the clean profile.
Lighting Effect
The open bottom delivers strong task light for tables and consoles. Chevron piercings cast short V-rays; dots and diamonds add star-like sparkle. The darker satin finish boosts contrast without harsh glare.
