Moon Night Light-Porcelain Lithophane Frosty Moon, Wall Plug in for Nursery, Kitchen, Bath, Nature Accent Light

This is a "lithophane"; a thin translucent porcelain night light, made using a technique from a lost art from the 1800's. When lit from behind, the light shining through the different thicknesses of the carving causes a highly detailed image to appear in front. As you see, the illuminated image is so detailed, that it has a photographic quality to it! In addition, the relief of the carving gives the image a dimensional quality when seen in person. To make them, we start by carving the image in a translucent wax, with the wax lit from behind. We then take a plaster mold of this engraving, and we then cast a fine porcelain clay into this mold. We then kiln fire the porcelain to 2300 degrees F. to achieve it's translucency and durability. The frost tipped tree at midnight on this beautiful night light has a mystical feel to it, with an otherworldly light that invokes contemplation. A serene and peaceful accent light for your home
