This Lithophane Footprints Accent Lamp is crafted from a thin translucent panel. This process has been revived from a lost art from the 1800's. The Footprints are first carved out of translucent wax. A plaster mold is then taken and a fine porcelain clay is placed into it. The porcelain is then kiln fired at 2300 degrees Fahrenheit to achieve it's translucency and durability. When lit from behind, this memory lamp portrays a highly detailed image on the front. One set of footprints is shown on the sandy beach with the saying "It was then that I carried you..." The image takes on a 3 dimensional quality and is of photographic quality. The Victorian designed base and frame is made of metal with an antique silver finish. This Lithophane Footprints Love Accent lamp will be a valued gift in remembrance of a loved one or special occasion. Maximum wattage: 25 (type "B" bulb included) Measurements: 4.5"(W) x 9.25"(H)
