Mica

Mica is a natural mineral with unique properties, appreciated for centuries for its metallic reflections and iridescent shades that capture the light with elegance. In cabinetmaking, mica is used in the form of very thin veneers, integrated into the surface of furniture or wall panels, to add a subtle, precious visual dimension.

This noble material is distinguished by its composition of thin, translucent sheets, which give it a soft shine and an almost iridescent effect. It is resistant to heat and humidity, making it durable and suitable for luxury furniture. Its lightness and finesse also enable it to be harmoniously combined with other materials such as wood, leather or metal.

In use, mica is carefully worked to reveal its changing reflections, bringing a mineral texture that enriches the aesthetics of a room without ever dominating it. At Eben&Or, it enhances bespoke creations by playing with natural or artificial light, creating a play of shadows and reflections that energizes every surface.

Choosing mica for a cabinetmaking project means opting for a material that combines discreet elegance, originality and durability, perfect for furniture or panels that want to make their mark while respecting tradition.
