Need a source for some punched tin (or copper) wall sconces. What I have in mind is a half-cylinder that would shield a small bulb on a wall. I did a google and didn’t find what I was looking for.

Punched tin lighting is a specialty of some parts of Mexico. I'd try to google "Mexican punched tin" and see where that gets you...

Yeah, one of my thoughts is to just drive to Nuevo Laredo and get some cheap. But I was hoping for a catalog on-line...

Seems to me that I saw some punched tin in the Van Dyke's catalog. Maybe it was titled "pie safe tin" or "punched tin for pie safes" or something like that.

If they don't have, they might be nice enough to offer a suggestion, since it wouldn't be a competitive product.
