Italian Origins
The Pumo Pugliese , with its baroque silhouette, has been a symbol of wealth and social distinction for centuries. Used to decorate railings and handrails of the homes of the wealthiest families in Puglia, Italy, often personalized with heraldic elements, it has a long tradition of ornamentation and prestige. The Pumo is also known as a symbol of Puglia, representing a deep connection with the local culture.
Meaning and Symbolism
The choice to include these Pumi among the decorative elements of the palaces of the Apulian landowners was also based on the idea that these objects, inspired by the cult of the Roman goddess Pomona, recall the birth of a flower or a fruit. This ceramic bud, therefore, already symbolized at that time the purity of a shoot , the capacity for regeneration, fertility and wealth, in short, everything one could wish for one's family, regardless of its social status.
