Archivist Gallery Giant Three Poodle Luxury Matchbox
Three Poodles: A Colossal Canine Celebration
We’ve long adored Archivist Gallery’s matchboxes, but this one is positively monumental! Overflowing with long, colorful matches, this extra-large box is perfect for lighting a fireplace, a whole parade of candles, or simply admiring as a collector’s treasure.
Illustrator Charlotte Farmer has turned vintage inspiration into pure delight with her playful illustration of three poodles in a riot of color—a whimsical, joyful scene that transforms this giant matchbox into a miniature work of art.
The Three Poodles is a collector’s item and a special edition from Archivist Gallery—bigger, bolder, and more charming than any other matchbox in their collection.
Archivist Gallery
Founded in 1994 by Sarah and William Allardice, Archivist Gallery began by reviving exquisite prints from the archives of the Natural History Museum. Since then, they’ve collaborated with artists and archives worldwide, creating a captivating collection of prints, cards, and their iconic luxury matches.
And yes, these matches are completely non-toxic—free from sulphur, zinc oxide, or any other nasties. Pure, playful fire at your fingertips.

General condition
Please keep in mind that in many cases we sell vintage and antique pieces. None of these pieces should be considered new or in perfect condition.
All of our vintage products show the rich beauty and history of their life with the knocks and bumps of many years of use. We restore our pieces so they will be clean and in a good working condition. However we try to minimise restoration to keep every piece as original as possible.
Photography
The physical object can differ slightly in colour from the object as presented online. We have made every effort to display colours accurately, but cannot guarantee that the pictures accurately reflect the colour of those goods in real life.
