Archivist Gallery Paint Tubes Giant Luxury Matchbox
Light Up Your Palette!
Every masterpiece begins with a blank canvas... and perhaps a well-lit candle.
Designed by The Pattern Book, this joyful giant matchbox is wrapped in a colourful parade of artist's paint tubes and vibrant swatches. It's a cheerful tribute to creativity, proving that inspiration comes in every colour imaginable.
Filled with 150 extra-long matches, this oversized box is ready to light fireplaces, tall candles, lanterns, or simply brighten up your coffee table. Equal parts practical and decorative, it's the sort of object that quietly insists on being admired long before anyone strikes a match.
The perfect gift for artists, colour lovers, creative souls, or anyone who believes life is better with a splash of paint and a flickering flame.
Archivist Gallery
Founded in 1994 by Sarah and William Allardice, Archivist Gallery began by breathing new life into remarkable prints from the archives of London's Natural History Museum. Today, they collaborate with artists from around the world to create beautifully illustrated prints, cards, and their now-iconic luxury matchboxes, turning everyday essentials into little works of art.
And yes, these matches are every bit as safe as they are stylish. They're completely non-toxic and free from sulphur, zinc oxide, and other nasties. Just pure, dependable fire... with a palette full of personality (because beige was never an option!)

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.
