Buster + Punch meets Rolls-Royce
(UK) – Presented by The Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts Club, Buster + Punch showcases bespoke version of the Buster Bulb at the Saatchi Gallery, London, UK on December 4.
Paying homage to co-founder of Rolls Royce Sir Henry Royce, Buster + Punch adapted the LED Buster bulb with a gold-plated bayonet design as an exclusive product offering for the exhibition.
Combining an advanced LED light source with the Royce patented B22 fitting, the Buster bulb is a blend of old and new. A contemporary version of the Edison filament bulb, the teardrop-shaped glass shell houses a resin light pipe that creates a crisp light quality. Updated with a gold-plated bayonet cap for the exhibition, the piece is inspired by the Rolls-Royce legacy of harnessing energy with grace.
Designer and founder Massimo Minale commented on the collaboration: “It was great to find a kindred spirit in Henry Royce – a man that designed remarkable cars whilst also improving and patenting the bayonet-style light bulb.”
