New product
3D Printed plaque from your photo - Lithophane Curved.
More info
Lithophanes
Send us your photo and we will produce a 3D plaque which will reveal your photo in amazing detail when illuminated from behind.
Size
The longest dimension of the plaque will be 100mm. In other words if you send us a portrait oriented photo your plaque will be 100mm high by whatever width your photo scales down to. Likewise if you send us a landscape photo your plaque will be 100mm wide by whatever height your photo scales to. If you were to send us a square photo your plaque will be 100mm square.
If you are deciding between a flat and a curved lithophane it may be worth taking into account postage costs. The curved lithophane plus packaging will probably be over 25mm thick and as such it would be posted as a small parcel costing £2.95 just for the postage with packaging on top. Of course if you are collecting in person this will not be an issue.
Safety
The plaques are made from white plastic which is flammable so for safety reasons do not use a candle for illumination - use natural light from a window or maybe a battery powered led.
Choosing your photo
Whilst all photos will reproduce ok, for best effect we would recommend a close up showing head and shoulders rather than full body and also with plenty of contrast.
