Light Affection™ Illuminated Framed Photo

01.09.08 | Comment?


Replacing the traditional way of displaying photos in photo frames, Light Affection combines a unique way of displaying and preserving photographs as well as creating a personalized unusual lighting solution. The carved piece magically comes alive when illuminated from behind. The varying thicknesses of the translucent material create the illusion of the original image.

Light Affection™ is based on an old art form called lithophanes. First invented in France in the late 1800’s, Lithophane (Greek for “vision in stone”) is a porcelain engraving that comes alive when illuminated from behind. Today, we create these pieces using modern, long lasting materials to give this unique effect.
