Description
Our matchstick holder keeps a supply of long matches close at hand beside the hearth, ready for lighting a fire, candles or a wood burner. Finished in black, the wooden body has a slim, upright shape that stands neatly on the mantelpiece or hearthstone without taking up much room. It arrives complete with 60 long matches, so it is ready to use from the moment it is unpacked. At 24cm tall and 7cm square, it holds a generous quantity while staying compact enough to tuck into a corner.
As a fireside accessory it works quietly alongside a companion set, log basket or bucket, pulling together the practical bits and pieces that gather around a working fire. The black finish suits both traditional and pared-back interiors, sitting comfortably against a cast iron stove, a painted surround or exposed brick. Group it with a candle or two and a small stack of kindling for an easy, lived-in look, or leave it standing alone for a tidier feel. It is one of those small fireside accessories that earns its place through daily use.
The wood is sturdy enough to be picked up and set down often, and the long matches are far safer to strike than short ones when reaching into a grate. Keep the holder away from direct heat and open flame, and wipe the outside with a soft, dry cloth to lift dust. Refill it with your preferred long matches once the original supply runs low.
