Three-dimensional display device for lampshades

摘要

The present invention provides a decorative lamp for displaying three dimensional works of art, photographs, and the like. A frustoconical lampshade formed from a non-translucent material has an opening cut from it to provide a viewing aperture. A first translucent panel having an art motif or other suitable design on it is affixed to the inside of the lampshade and covers the opening. The curvature of the first panel corresponds to the curvature of the lampshade. Additional translucent panels containing artwork complimenting that on the first panel are mounted concentrically within the lampshade at predetermined distances apart from the first panel to create a three dimensional effect. The inner panels are configured in a frustoconical shape to conform to the general configuration of a standard lampshade. The artwork contained on these inner panels is pre-distorted to avoid distortion in the final display that would otherwise result from the frustoconical configuration of the lampshade and the viewing aperture cut from the lampshade.
