Like a print on paper, it is viewed by reflected light. Like the daguerreotype, which it replaced, and like the prints produced by a Polaroid camera, each is a unique original that could only be duplicated by using a camera to copy it. The ambrotype was introduced in the 1850s. Because of their fragility ambrotypes were usually kept in folding cases like those used for daguerreotypes (Wikipedia.com).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANTIQUE GOWN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55550105911683,"sku":"","price":135.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0913\/1897\/6899\/files\/1_antique_ambrotype_1860_2a073818-977a-4d33-bdbb-508101949f0c.jpg?v=1747547017","url":"https:\/\/www.antique-gown.com\/products\/ambrotype-elegant-man-ca-1860","provider":"ANTIQUE GOWN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
