Convex lithophane with inscription PP 146 on the back meaning Paris Porcelain, set with green and pink rhinestones with brass attachment.
Signature Lithophanie Française, Paris on the hook.
Dimensions: 17.5 x 13 cm.
An angel holds a child in her arms. She descends from a starry sky and pushes open the stained-glass window of a house in a cityscape. The steeples of a cathedral can be seen in the background.
A lithophane is a thin ceramic plate with a relief, the thickness of which varies from 1.5 to 4 mm.
The porcelain is fired twice at a temperature of 1250 °C.
Under normal lighting, there is virtually no visible image, but a three-dimensional image is created when a light is placed behind it.
Lithophanes became particularly popular in the mid-19th century. Placed in front of a candle, they served as a bedside lamp or were hung in front of a window.
