Know before you buy
A lithophane is a thin, translucent porcelain panel with varying thicknesses. When illuminated from behind, these variations create a detailed, three-dimensional image through light and shadow rather than surface paint.
The light is designed to hold a standard votive candle, which is not included with your purchase. We recommend using a high-quality, unscented votive to ensure the best experience.
Yes, a battery-operated LED votive candle is a safe and effective alternative. It provides the same warm glow without the need for an open flame or the risk of wax residue inside the porcelain.
While the translucent porcelain is delicate, it is durable enough for standard tabletop display. To clean, simply wipe the exterior gently with a soft, dry cloth; avoid using water or harsh cleaning agents.
No, this item is strictly for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor elements, temperature fluctuations, or moisture can damage the porcelain or compromise the stability of the votive light.
