The Glazed Ceramic Pumo Candle Holder

“A gift that needs no card: it speaks for itself.”

The Apulian pumo becomes a candle holder: a handmade ceramic bud that, with a tea light inside, creates an atmosphere all its own.

Handmade Glazed ceramic One size, 12 cm

The pumo is a piece of handcrafted ceramic representing a rosebud about to bloom: new life coming into being. That is why, besides being an original decorative object, it carries an important meaning and symbolises abundance, prosperity, fertility and new beginnings.

This is its candle holder version, 12 cm tall: light it with a simple tea light and it creates a unique atmosphere. It is a signature piece of Apulian craftsmanship which, with its history and meaning, needs no card to go with it.


A symbol of Puglia

What the pumo tells

🌹
The bud
The name comes from the local dialect and means «apple», but the shape is that of a blooming flower, conical and wrapped in leaves, in baroque style.
🌱
New life
It is a good omen of prosperity and fertility: that is why it is one of the best-known symbols of Apulian pottery.
💍
For newlyweds
A gift idea for a just-married couple and an elegant wedding favour for weddings and ceremonies.
🕯️
For the home
Lit with a tea light, it brings a warm glow into the house and a good-luck charm to keep on display.

Who makes it

The pottery workshop

Every pumo is made entirely by hand by local craftsmen in a workshop in Grottaglie, Puglia, where the pieces are still shaped and decorated by hand today. That is why you will never find two identical ones: each has its own character and its own details.

The skill in modelling the clay makes every object unique in shape, decoration and colour, and the mixing and matching of the glazes is know-how handed down from father to son. The pumo is made to order, when the order comes in.

📦 Each piece is handmade, so it may differ slightly from the photo in decoration, colour or finish. It is packed with double protection to arrive intact. For special colour requests, contact us.
