A lithophane is a thin, translucent plaque, usually made of porcelain, that is molded to varying thicknesses. When lit from behind, the different thicknesses create an image due to the varying shades. They were invented in France in the 1820s by Baron Paul de Bourguignon and became popular for lampshades, nightlights, and decorative plaques. The technique was later adopted and produced mainly in Germany, with the Prussian Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur (KPM) in Berlin being a significant producer. Lithophanes fell out of fashion by the end of the 19th century but have seen a revival in recent decades,
with modern materials like glass and plastic being used.
