This is almost a lost art. These Lithophanes are so beautiful. The images are created by limiting the amount of light that passes through a material. By changing the thickness of the material the amount of light passing through creates a contrast. The material used must be translucent for the effect to work.
The last 6 photos of these treasures were created by Hannah Blackwell. She traveled overseas for extra training. Enjoy! We sure did.
I encourage you to click these photos to enlarge so you can see the detail.
