Product Description
These Punched Tin Cone Lamp Shades in Bronze Finish are sold as two lamp shades and measure approximately 15 inches in diameter by 8.5 inches high each, handcrafted in Central Mexico from hand-punched tin with a smoke-bronze pewter satin patina. Their wide cone shape, open bottom, small top aperture, hemmed top and bottom rims, spider fitter, pendant adapter compatibility, dash and oval perforation bands, medium sparkle pattern, jigged spacing, hand-rubbed finish depth, clean deburred punchwork, and glare-shielding form create practical shades rooted in Mexican hojalata metalwork, Hacienda décor, Spanish Revival style, Southwest interiors, and Rustic Mediterranean lighting. Ideal for side tables, consoles, bedside lighting, bars, covered outdoor areas, pendant conversions, warm 2700–3000K dimmable LEDs, and vintage-style bulbs, these bronze punched tin cone lamp shades add focused downlight, soft ambient sparkle, and handcrafted texture.
