Style 19 - 12" x 12" x 1" Museum-Quality
Specimens - now available in Standard, Masked 2D, and our
incredible Masked 3D sculptures with two linked charge layers
These
sculptures are available in three major categories: Standard,
Masked 2D, and Masked 3D. All were carefully irradiated
and manually discharged along
one edge or near the center. On masked specimens, we used a variety of
lead masks to selectively control the location and shape of discharge
zones. By combining two sets of precision masks and passing the specimen
through the electron beam two times, we can
create incredible 3D effects that reflect the current state of the art
in Captured Lightning sculptures.
Branching discharges
virtually fill the entire area of
our standard sculptures. Masked specimens have only certain regions where discharges
are allowed. All of our Style 19 sculptures are of museum quality and are
intended for the discriminating collector. These are some of the very
finest large Lichtenberg Figures in the world, and
you'll only find them offered by Stoneridge Engineering.
We believe that this is the first time that figures of this size have turned
out so stunningly beautiful. The only other publicly viewable specimen
of this size resides at the Oak Ridge Associated Universities' Health Physics Historical Instrumentation Museum Collection.
The beauty and symmetry of our large specimens is a tribute to the
knowledge and hard-won experience of the physicists and engineers who are part of our
Lichtenberg Figures team: Bill Hathaway and Kim Goins of GCL
Laboratories, Todd Johnson of Fermi National Laboratory, and Bert Hickman of Stoneridge Engineering.
We recommend mounting and displaying these specimens using our custom solid walnut light bases.
These
are designed with a velvet-lined cavity that gently, but firmly,
cradles your sculpture in a vertical position while simultaneously
bathing
it with light from an array of Light Emitting Diodes (LED's). These
bases are
available with white, "electric blue", or in a couple of versions of
multicolor color-changing
LED's. The price per standard Style 19 sculpture is $600. Style 19 Masked 2D sculptures
are $660, and Masked 3D specimens are $720. Light bases are $168 (for white or
"electric blue" LED's), $198 for multicolor/color-changing, or $250 for
a remotely-controlled multicolor base. Bases and sculptures should ideally be purchased at the same time to insure a
snug fit between the two.
