Invented in Limoges in 1828 by Paul de Bourgoing, lithophany is a traditional technique of engraving on thin, unglazed porcelain biscuit.
The decoration comes to life in transparency through a skilful play of light and shadow created by candlelight, revealing astonishing precision of detail and perspective.
