VINTAGE ITALIAN CERAMIC CANDLESTICK WITH FRUIT & LEAF MOTIF – 12″ TALL

Eclectic Whimsy Decor presents a hand-crafted Italian ceramic candlestick, marked “ITALY” on the base. This mid-century piece features sculpted fruit and leaf appliqué in vibrant turquoise green and soft yellow hues, wrapping around a classic white-glazed pedestal form. A wonderful example of Capodimonte-style Italian artistry from the 1960s–early 1970s, full of vintage charm and color.

Each fruit and leaf has been carefully applied by hand, showcasing true artisan craftsmanship typical of postwar Italian ceramics. It’s a lively, sculptural accent that brings Mediterranean flair to any room.
