Corellian flame miniature

Corellian flame miniatures were light sculptures designed by Corellian artists that resembled glowing, floating flames with a pinkish color. They were made of transoptical fibers formed from pseudoluminescent plant material and Goolish light sources. Those fibers were then shaped into extremely delicate sculptures in the shape of an luminescent blaze.

Although simple in design, Corellian flame miniatures were deeply admired and, although many species attempted to duplicate them, none were able to adequately do so. Grand Admiral Mitth'raw'nuruodo deeply admired this art form, and during his military campaign against the New Republic in 9 ABY, he surrounded himself with thousands of holographic to calm himself as he thought and reflected.

Behind the scenes
The concept of Corellian flame miniatures was created by Timothy Zahn and first appeared in Dark Force Rising the second in his Thrawn Trilogy series of novels. They were later featured in the comic book adaptation of Dark Force Rising by Mike Baron. There they were illustrated for the first time by penciller Terry Dodson, inker Kevin Nowlan and colorist Pamela Rambo. To date, they have not appeared in any other Star Wars work.
