The parol is a traditional Christmas ornament and has since become an iconic symbol of Filipino Christas. Traditionally made with bamboo and Japanese paper and lit by candles, oil lamps, or carbide lamps, modern parols can be made using other materials such as plastic, metal, and capiz shells and are usually illuminated with electric lighting. Its most-common form is a five-pointed star, although it can come in various shapes and sizes.
