Pink Concave Holographic Grating- Glass Ferric Hologram
$40.00
Sold Out
A unique hologram - one of the first available using ferric ammonium oxalate rather than ammonium dichromate as a photosensitizer. This experimental chemistry holds the promise of less toxic materials and have ease of processing, if it can be optimized. Much work remains to be done, but the initial results are encouraging.
Sales of these holograms continues to fund further research at Rika Labs.
This hologram is a concave grating. On this particular hologram, the exposure and processing was a little off, leading to good reflectivity, but a bit of milkyness towards the bottom. The pink color is the result of a bit of residual laser dye, and gives a lovely pastel cast to the upper portion of the hologram.
Holograms are very difficult to photograph and are much better in person. There is much more depth, dimension of color, and texture to the holographic layer that cannot be described.
Recorded in ferric gelatin on July 18, 2021. Produced using powerful lasers: 488 nm Coherent Sapphire and 445 nm Ahura ECDL.
After development and processing, the delicate holographic layer is laminated behind a sheet of glass. The edges are ground and beveled with a series of diamond lapping wheels, then polished on a buffer to a glossy shine. The result is a jewel-like faceted appearance and an excellent feel in the hand.
The number in the corner is for inventory tracking. It can be easily removed with an alcohol wipe. Holograms are best viewed when illuminated with light coming from a single point, such as a flashlight or spotlight.

Custom work is also available. I love making holograms, and custom orders are the most rewarding. Please contact me for details.
