      Do you mean the real mineral? I think you will have trouble finding it. What do you want it for? There is probably a modern material to use instead.

      Sheet mica splittings are available from Van Dyke’s Restorers, 800-558-1234, http://www.vandykes.com. My catalog is getting a little old and out-of-date but it is available in an 18″ x 36″ x.015″ size and an 18″ x 18″ x .015 size. It is a bit pricy.

      It’s used as a shade material in arts and crafts style lamps, among other things.
