Zesty Cocktail Matches Square Matchbox

A square matchbox with a party-ready feel. The illustration shows a bright cocktail glass with citrus slices and a playful lime character alongside, set against a vivid blue background. Gold foil details are worked into the design, catching the light and giving the artwork an extra lift without tipping into novelty. It’s a joyful, graphic piece by Marion Elliot that feels lively and a little bit cheeky.

Inside the box are 125 long safety matches, neatly arranged in a white tray. The natural wooden sticks are finished with yellow tips and measure 100mm long, making them practical for lighting candles, fires or incense with ease. It’s the kind of everyday object that quietly earns its place out on display rather than being hidden away.

Litho printed in the UK and finished with gold foil, the box feels considered and well made. FSC-certified wood gives it a reassuring weight and quality in the hand. Left on a coffee table, bar cart or mantelpiece, it adds colour and personality to the room. A fun gift for hosts, cocktail lovers, or anyone who appreciates useful objects that also happen to look really good.
