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.
How it’s made
Each piece is handmade from local Sejnane clay, shaped entirely without a wheel, mold or industrial tools. The clay is sun-dried and fired in open flames — an ancestral method passed down through generations.
Description
The Sejnane Clay Candle Holder has an organic, sculptural form shaped by the artisan’s hands. Its textured finish, natural pigments and rhythmic curves give it a strong presence. When lit, the flame casts warm, moving shadows across the room.
