TikTok Hotel Glass Photo Plate
TikTok Hotel Glass Photo Plate
This antique glass photo plate print blew up on TikTok! And for good reason, it's a one off camera less photography taken with an old chemical technique called cyanotype. I used a antique glass photo plate, which was what was used as film over 100 years ago. An ideal gift for lovers of photography and art enthusiasts.
Cyanotype prints are real photographs, using the sun or UV light, to process paper painted with cyanotype chemical. When exposed, the print turns a gorgeous Prussian blue, and when washed, leaves behind an x-ray image of the photo negative. Each one of these prints are made to order, so they will differ slightly, but that's the beauty of it - it is a one of handmade product! It's science meets art while painting with sunlight!
Each fine grain - heavyweight paper (200g/m^2) is hand cut, hand painted and made fresh to order, they’ll differ slightly – but that is the beauty of it! I leave a small white border and try to show a little of the brush strokes for extra interest. The prints can be framed, used as a card or given as a gift. (Frame not included)
I also sell cyanotype print kits if you would like to make the prints yourself. It's a beautiful way to capture the seasons and the beloved plants in your garden and can be shared with children as a fun activity or done alone as a curious and creative adult who likes to experiment. I've made a Youtube video that talks you through the whole process with tips and tricks!
