Sejnane pottery · UNESCO-listed craft · Tunisia

Bring home a piece of living history with this handcrafted clay candle holder made by the women potters of Sejnane, in northern Tunisia. Their pottery skills were inscribed by UNESCO in 2018 on the list of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
