Christmas at Home Matches
€14.00
Archivist was founded as a letterpress printer in the UK in 1994, working with the Natural History Museum's visual archives. We feature a selection of oversized matchbooks designed by Archivist in their signature nostalgic style. Practical and functional, they make lighting fires, storm lanterns, and big candles a breeze.
What is Christmas for if it isn’t for arson? I jest. Of course, it is for the ritualistic lighting of fires and candles. The stereotypical blazing Yuletide log in the fireplace and the advent candles and crowns might be just that—a stereotype . . . but the physical and atmospheric warmth that they bring is certainly a comfort year-round.
This box of matches is made by Archivist and the matches measure just over 28cm. There are 45 matches per box and a long strike section on one of the lengths of the box.
