Light a nature-inspired spark with this special matchbox full of 4" long candle matches! This extra-large candle matchbox is adorned with a simple pattern evocative of lotus blossoms in navy blue and cerulean blue.

The design was inspired by a traditional Japanese bookbinding technique known as stab binding, which uses woven thread in decorative motifs to hold the pages of a book together. This matchbook has a subtle linen texture print overlaid on the design, evoking the feel of a beloved cloth-bound book.

This gorgeous, oversized matchbox is tailor-made for cigar bar decor, sparkler send-off lighting, on hand at the bride and groom table to light taper candles, or a unique thank-you gift for any explorer, nature lover, traveler, book lover, artist, photographer, planner, caterer, musician, DJ, designer, or anyone else with an imaginative soul who helped plan your special wedding day.

Matchbox is a larger size (4 1/2" x 2 5/8" x 3/4"), and contains about (60) 4”-long, cerulean blue-tipped safety matches with natural stems. A generous striker strip is located on the right hand side. The sliding inner match drawer color adds a subtle bit of matte champagne gold.

Studio Portmanteau is happily based out of a small studio space in Oregon's gorgeous Rogue Valley. A passion for the simple things in life - stargazing, beachcombing, gardening, cooking, the great outdoors - plus a fascination with tiny things and an obsession with all things golden led to the idea behind this design studio specializing in matchboxes, and more recently delving into a broader range of thoughtful objects for the home and special occasions. Each product sold in the shop is a one-of-a-kind creation designed and made by our team in the Pacific Northwest. Most of our items are hand-pressed with metal dies on a vintage foil stamper that is the mainstay of the studio. Thanks for striking a spark with our handmade goods!
