Lithophane Studio · Made in Troutman, NC

Your photo, lit from behind.

A lithophane is a thin 3D-printed panel that looks plain in daylight. Put a light behind it and your photo appears: thicker spots block more light and read darker, thinner spots glow. Upload a photo, pick a size, and see it lit up before anything is printed.
