Buster and Punch Forked Light Shade

The Buster and Punch Forked Light Shade is a large metal light shade from the Forked range by Buster and Punch. Its minimalist dome-and-cylinder silhouette is finished in a brushed metal and is designed to deliver directional downlighting when fitted to a compatible fixture.

The shade features a hemispherical upper profile that transitions into a straight-walled cylindrical lower section, creating a deep-set dome that provides more coverage than a standard semi-spherical shade. It is available in Burnt Steel, Gun Metal, Steel and Brass, and offered in Medium and Large sizes.

Constructed from metal with a uniform brushed finish and fine horizontal grain, the Forked shade presents a consistent metallic surface inside and out which aids internal reflection. The design is deliberately seamless, with no visible external joints, fasteners or decorative hardware.

Because the bottom is fully open with a clean-cut rim, light is directed through the wide aperture to produce a focused pool of light below while the opaque sides shield the lamp from horizontal sightlines. The result is controlled downlighting with reduced glare and clear definition of illuminated surfaces.

This product is supplied as a shade component for attachment to a compatible lighting fixture; lamps, drivers and mounting hardware are not specified and should be confirmed at point of purchase. The Forked shade is covered by a two-year manufacturer warranty.

At Lighting Design Online we recommend the Forked shade when you need a considered downlight with a clean metal aesthetic. We provide design-led advice and practical specification support — confirming finish, size and lamp compatibility — so your scheme achieves the intended ambience with professional assurance and clear, project-friendly guidance.
