One of the <\/span>trends in interior design in recent years<\/b> is to use <\/span>stabilized natural lichen<\/b> for decorating interiors with a touch of green.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stabilized lichen is very adaptable to any design requirement:<\/span> it can be customized in terms of shape, size, color<\/b>, and can be integrated with other accessories, such as LED lights.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this guide, we will answer the main questions about stabilized lichen<\/b> for interiors, such as how it’s obtained, how much it costs, and how it can be installed.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Is Stabilized Natural Lichen?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Stabilized natural lichen is natural lichen – harvested at its peak development – and subjected to the stabilization process<\/b>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Stabilization “crystallizes” the lichen in its form and <\/span>maintains its appearance over time<\/b>. Sometimes the term “stabilized natural lichen” is used interchangeably with “stabilized moss,” but they are not the same.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Is the Difference Between Moss and Lichen?<\/b> They are two different plant species in terms of organic structure, but they look quite similar.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moss is a leafy plant species<\/b>, with small branching structures.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lichens are a combination of fungi and algae<\/b>, and in some cases, they can resemble a small branched shrub.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stabilized Green Lichen: How Is It Obtained?<\/b><\/h2>\n

How is lichen stabilized? <\/span>The process is simple: the plant is immersed in a solution of water and salt<\/b> – and optionally natural dye if customization is desired -.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The salt gradually replaces all the sap<\/b> and prevents lichen photosynthesis. This means that <\/span>the lichen will no longer grow and remains “crystallized”<\/b> in its current form.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The lichen is left in the solution for a specific period and then dried.<\/span><\/p>\n

How Long Does Stabilized Lichen Last?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Verde Profilo’s stabilized lichen is guaranteed for<\/span> 5 years<\/b>, maintaining its appearance and color unchanged.<\/span><\/p>\n

How Much Does Stabilized Lichen Cost?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The most accurate answer is:<\/span> it depends on the interior design project<\/b>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The factors that have the most impact on cost are the <\/span>dimensions<\/b> of the area to be covered, <\/span>the chosen <\/span>coloration<\/b>, and the <\/span>integration with other accessories<\/b>, such as LED lights.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
