Spun Reflector Large, Polished Aluminium

Davey's Large Spun Reflector is a beautifully simplistic, factory-inspired hanging light. A regular feature in kitchens and restaurants around the world, this industrial pendant is available in two finishes- polished aluminium or weathered copper with a polished copper interior. The production technique leaves a distinctive imprint in the metal, giving each light a delightfully individual, unprocessed look.

We use centuries-old techniques to create truly authentic, unprocessed lighting designs; some of which originate from East India Docks (London) in the 1880s where Davey Lighting was established.

Each of our spun shades begin life as sheet metal disc and are formed through a process called spinning. The sheets are first clamped to a formed block (reflecting the shape we want to produce) which are rotated together at high speeds. A localized pressure is supplied by hand to this spinning workpiece, causing the disc to adopt the shape of the block. The formed shade is then finished by polishing, weathering or powder coating.
