Muscar is a stroking light; a friendly intruder and a loyal companion, it can sit on your lap while you read.

Directly flock-coating on a bulb provides it with a unique, tactile effect.

A combination of low heat ES lightbulb and a heat resistant fiber coating brings this light to the perfect temperature to touch and stroke.

Flocking is a finishing technique where flock fiber is applied on a surface, providing it with a smooth and tactile texture. Playing with the fiber's properties and experimenting with the variables of the technique, can reveal new potential.
