Mica is a naturally occurring mineral that's been used in lampshades for over a century because it diffuses light into a warm, golden tone without the harsh point-source glare of a bare bulb. Stained glass accents around the mica add color depth that flat glass can't replicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e79 inches long, four shades, double-rod bar with a matte black finish.
