Lighting type? An on stage “light” that’s part dressing/ staging.

I will try to find a picture, but they look like the bottom of an oil drum, mounted sideways on a yoke.

The inside is painted white and there’s an exposed light source, the lamp is reflected / bounced off the “oil drum” part

when I describe the “oil drum” they may have been modelled on a genuine oil drum one-off and now manufactured from new materials?

often used in rock/ light entertainment

Was it a Pageant Light?  I've never seen one in the flesh so I don't know the actual size but it more or less fits your description.  I know they sometimes had a set of rings on the front to reduce spill.

e2a  Sorry -ignore the above.  I'd misread the title of the post as 'an OLD stage light'......  I don't think many rock designers use pageant lights.......!
