Free Lithophane 3D Prints

Backlit photo prints, lamps, and light boxes

A lithophane hides an image in varying print thickness that only appears when light shines through. Printed photos, night lights, lamp shades, and light boxes make some of the most gift-worthy prints a maker can produce, all from a single spool of white filament.

This collection curates free lithophane 3D models and frames: flat and curved lithophanes, lamp and night-light housings, and light-box bases. Every file is free to download from the original creator's listing, and many pair with a generator so you can drop in your own photo.

Print lithophanes in white PLA at a fine layer height, flat or curved, with the image facing the light source. A cheap LED puck or a window turns a plain-looking print into a glowing photo.
