Brass Matchbox
Brass Matchbox
Designed to hold strike anywhere matches, it’s an elegant alternative to disposable lighters and their harmful fumes. With an integrated strike plate at the bottom, it’s also way more satisfying to use.
Inspired by an antique found at the Paris Flea Market, each case originates from a handmade wax mold that is cast using a ‘lost wax’ method. Every component is handmade in NYC, including the spring catch which snaps the lid shut in a satisfying ‘CLAP’. The oblong shape makes for a comfortable grip and easy travel in one’s pocket.
The case is solid 1mm thick cast brass and measuring 2 ⅝” H x 1 ½” W x ¾” D. Available in a polished brass finish that will develop its own unique patina over time.
The product is handmade, please allow a 2-3 week lead time to receive your order.
