Astro Tacoma Ribbed Glass Shade
The Astro Tacoma Ribbed Glass Shade is a decorative replacement glass globe from Astro’s Tacoma range. The clear, spherical shade is formed in glass and is intended as a textured diffuser for pendant and ceiling fittings where a refined, tactile finish is required.
Its defining feature is a dense, horizontal ribbed pattern: concentric grooves wrap the full circumference of the orb to create an architectural, tiered surface. The shade is specified with a 135mm diameter and the ribbing gives the piece a distinctive profile compared with smooth glass globes.
Made in clear glass, the shade emphasises material clarity and surface detail. The uniform ridges provide a tactile finish and retain a clear appearance when unlit, allowing the texture to contribute to a scheme even without illumination. The base includes a small circular opening for mounting onto a lamp holder or socket.
Functionally the ribbed texture refracts and scatters light from an internal bulb, helping to reduce direct glare while producing a subtle play of light and shadow. The result is a soft, ambient diffusion suitable for general and decorative lighting layers.
The Tacoma Ribbed Glass Shade is a considered choice when you want a simple upgrade that changes both form and light quality. At Lighting Design Online we focus on design-led outcomes and clear specification—if you need confirmation of compatibility with a particular lamp holder or fitting, our project-friendly advice and product assurance (Astro 3-year warranty) make it straightforward to specify with confidence.
