Details
This highly decorative candle holder takes the form of a Sicilian Queen's head, complete with colourful turban and gold jewellery. Widely seen across Sicily, the Queen's head draws on a traditional story in which a spurned woman cut off her lover's head and used it as a vase in which to plant basil. The heads are always made in pairs, representing the impossibility of their love.
