Apollineo Candle Stand In Leccese Stone And Hand-Painted Ceramic

The Apollineo collection mergs classical and contemporary elements to define a unique aesthetic inspired by Mediterranean architecture and vibes. Sun-blessed pure volumes, shapes marked by time, corroded by water and wind. Their colors are warm as the Southern Sun and their surfaces decorated by hand with bright majolica tiles with geometric patterns create an original play of reflections, lights and shadows, grooves and three-dimensional facets. Starting from a quarry ashlar of Leccese stone, a fossiliferous limestone found only in very few quarries in the Salento area near Lecce, all the products are first machine-carved to obtain straight edges and then finished by hand. Stone and clay, basic elements of the architecture of the Mediterranean basin, give rise to miniature architectures.The Apollineo candle stand is inspired by the stairways along the Mediterranean coast. The decor TETTI (roof in english) is inspired by the play lights and shadows on the roof of the houses.
