Fishermen, when they finish making the halfa or date containers used for catching octopus and cuttlefish, start making beautiful pieces for home decoration, such as this candle holder.

This candlestick has been made entirely by hand using Sejnane pottery. The skill of creating the characteristic handmade ceramics by the women of Sejnane, Tunisia, has been added to the list of intangible cultural heritage by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO). It is a practice of using a specific and ancient technique to make clay objects for the home, inspired by the surrounding environment. A piece of handcrafted art that you can put in your favourite space in your home.
