Crafted in collaboration with the Hernández family of San José de Gracia—renowned for their iconic ceramic piñas—these candleholders honour Michoacán’s rich ceramic legacy. The pieces blend pre-Hispanic techniques with colonial-era glazing traditions, brought by the Spanish in the 16th century, creating a cultural dialogue rooted in history and form.
Design
Made using the intricate pastillaje technique, each Don Pedro Candleholder is adorned with delicate clay applications and finished with a lustrous glaze. The result is an elegant silhouette with detailed textures and depth—radiating warmth, refinement, and a quiet emotional resonance in any setting.
