What Makes This Lightning in a Bottle Uncommon

Who says you can't capture lightning in a bottle? Nature's most dramatic light show is preserved forever in this fascinating piece. Each one represents a real Lichtenburg figure—the scientific name for the intricate, tree-like patterns created by high-voltage electrical discharges. Glowing on an illuminated base that highlights every branched detail, this sculpture offers a striking reminder that science can produce extraordinary works of art.

  • Created by bombarding acrylic with electrons in a particle accelerator, no two are ever alike.
  • Each piece features a unique Lichtenberg figure formed by electrical discharge.
  • Includes a light-up display base.
  • Measures 4"H.
  • Made in Maryland.
