A few things, thoughtfully considered.

Will my photograph be cut off?

We start with your whole photograph. You can crop its width and height separately, then choose how much space it takes on the shade. Fit selected photo keeps the selection complete. Widening it may crop the top and bottom; check the layout and 3D view before confirming. Plain areas are part of the lampshade, not missing image.

What does the preview show?

A rotating, assembled lamp with your photo mapped into its surface. The unlit preview is illustrative, not a manufacturing proof or a prediction of the illuminated result.

What about materials and returns?

The shade is finely layered and 3D printed. Please read the brand’s material information and personalized-order terms before purchasing.

Shipping — when will my lamp arrive?

Made-to-order timing and transit time are separate. Contact us for the current production estimate and delivery options before choosing a gift date.

Returns — what about a personalized order?

Personalized items may have different return conditions from standard lamps. Please read the applicable terms before confirming your photograph. Contact support if your item arrives damaged or defective.

Photo guide

Photos that glow best.

The shade turns brightness into depth, so a clear image with good contrast works best.

  • Faces, closePortraits where faces fill much of the frame read clearly in the light.
  • Good lightDaylight or even indoor light. Very dark or blown-out photos lose detail.
  • Simple backgroundA plain or soft background keeps the subject from blending in.
  • Your whole photoNo automatic face-cropping: you choose the crop and its width on the shade.

    We turned our favorite wedding photo into the lamp shade. The craftsmanship is top-notch—the beautiful wooden base with that touch of brass hardware makes it look incredibly high-end. It's a true, romantic centerpiece for our bedroom.

    I uploaded a picture of my Golden Retriever, and the lithophane perfectly captured every detail of his fur. It brings a huge smile to my face every time I turn it on!

  24. 5 out of 5P.P

    I was looking for a truly unique anniversary gift and decided to order this lamp with a custom family portrait. When the light is off, it looks like an elegant, textured white drum, but the moment you turn it on, our family photo glows with incredible 3D detail! At 20.8 inches tall, it acts as a stunning centerpiece in our living room. It’s such a beautiful way to display memories.❤❤

  25. 5 out of 5B.K

    Bought this as a farewell gift for a friend moving away, using a photo of our favorite spot in New York. The solid build quality and the highly personalized touch make it worth every single penny. She absolutely loved it!

Good to know

Questions about your photo lamp

Choose your photoAll help topics Contact us

How many photos can I use?

The Drum takes up to 4 photos in the designer. One clear photo is enough. If you want to combine more, ask us before ordering.

Can I see my lamp before I order?

Yes. The designer on this page shows a 3D preview you can turn, a room view and a light on and off view. The preview is a digital simulation, not a manufacturing proof, and the physical texture and lighting can look different.

Can I add text or change the colors?

Ask before ordering. We do not assume a request is possible until we have looked at the lamp and what you want.

Can I return a personalized lamp?

Personalized lamps are made with your chosen image, so they are excluded from change-of-mind returns. For a damaged, defective or incorrect item, contact us with your order number and clear photos. Returns & order issues

How long does a photo lamp take?

Your lamp is made after you confirm your design, then handed to a carrier, and you receive tracking by email when it ships. Free shipping to US addresses, with tracking. Each order is processed before it ships; current delivery estimates are in our Shipping policy. Production comes before dispatch, so ask us before ordering for a specific date. Shipping & delivery
