Will the natural mycelium shade change color over time?

The color of the mycelium skin is naturally white. Over time it will age and take on a slightly more golden hue. To maintain a bright white exterior, select the white milk paint option or explore available limewash colors.

How long will a mycelium lampshade last?

MushLume's oldest lampshades are 10+ years old and still beautiful. Even though the material is biodegradable, as an indoor lighting application it is stable and inert and will bring many years of use.

How do I clean a mycelium lampshade?

Use a duster and gently brush the exterior shade. Do not use any liquids or cleaners.

What spaces are best for mycelium lighting?

MushLume lighting is rated for indoor use only. Dry, climate-controlled environments are best. For bathroom or kitchen applications, painted options are recommended to preserve the material from moisture and airborne grease.

Can MushLume lighting be customized?

Yes. MushLume can accommodate many customization requests including cord length, cord color, and shade modifications. Contact info@mushlumelighting.com for details.
