Respectfully,
Mica is not affected by heat, it is not a fire hazard and it doesn't change colour over time?
And of course it is the traditional material!
Good Evening Friends,
Great answers by both of you as you are correct in your answers.
It's hard to beat mica for a lampshade material. Besides its warm, amber Translucence, it's nonflammable, resisting temperatures up to 1650 degrees Fahrenheit.
Thank you for your support.
