Lithophane measures 3-1/2 by 4-1/2 inches Lithophanes were conceived in 1827, when it was discovered that a remarkable three dimensional image could be produced by shining light through a carving of varied thickness in porcelain. These beautiful transparencies are achieved by first carving the image into beeswax. The translucency of the wax allows the artist to see the result of his labor as he works. A plaster casting is taken from this masterwork, then a fine porcelain paste is pressed into this mold. The panels are kiln fired to 2300 degrees Fahrenheit to achieve their extreme density and amazing translucency. Over half do not survive this process; a testimony to the difficulty of this technique. This night light is an example of quality craftsmanship ? fine details with a light, delicate style. A switch on the front of the night light fixture allows you to turn the lamp on and off. The socket is UL listed for safety, takes a standard bulb and fits into a US household electrical outlet. Kitchen, baby / child's room, nursery, bedroom, office, den, bathroom, closet or hallway - you'll be happy where ever you decide to put this beautiful nightlight! Makes a great gift for house warming, baby showers, birthday and more!
