Allumettes Bird Studies

I usually shove matches in a drawer, but these sit out on my coffee table and actually start conversations. The bird artwork is sharp enough that guests assume they're prints until they pick one up to light a candle.

The artwork on these matches is genuinely frame-worthy, I almost felt bad striking the first one. They light easily and add a nice touch of color to my shelf, though I do wish the box were a bit sturdier for daily use. Still, for the price, it’s a lovely way to keep matches within reach.

Kept the box on my coffee table instead of shoving it in a drawer, and the artwork actually sparks conversation every time someone visits. The matches themselves strike reliably, which is more than I can say for the plain ones I used to buy.
