Now you may wonder how Jack-O-lanterns became so popular and why we carve pumpkins at Halloween. To find the origins of Jack-O-lanterns, we have to go all the way back to the 1600s in Rural Ireland. The legend of a shadowy figure known as Stingy Jack or Drunk Jack, but mostly known as Jack O Lantern, began to arise. It’s believed Jack tricked the Devil and was doomed to wander the earth with only a carved-out turnip to light his way. At Arabesque Gifts, established in 1990, we honor this rich tradition with ethically sourced, handcrafted Jack O Lanterns. Celebrate Halloween with a piece that tells a timeless story, curated from around the world.
