ShopFarols had the amazing opportunity to meet with Live in the Bay’s Liv Horton on KRON 4 News where we discussed the magic of Filipino parols and how our mission is to bring this beautiful tradition to the Bay Area and Beyond.
What are Parols?
Parols are traditional Filipino star-shaped lanterns that symbolize the star of Bethlehem and the hope and goodwill of the holiday season. They are made from various materials such as bamboo, paper, and capiz shells, these lanterns are a staple in Filipino Christmas celebrations.
At ShopFarols, we take pride in offering a wide range of parols, each handcrafted by skilled artisans in the Philippines. Our parols are crafted in Pampanga, a region renowned for its parol-making tradition that has been passed down through generations. These artisans meticulously detail, paint, and assemble each lantern by hand, ensuring high quality and authenticity while preserving a cherished cultural heritage.
