The Fish Matchbox

Our fish pattern is inspired by sardines in a can and brings a touch of character to any tabletop. Painted in warm red watercolor, this matchbox is dressed in sardines from head to tail. Equal parts tidy and cheeky, the design feels both nostalgic and lively.

This isn’t your ordinary matchbox - it’s a keepsake. Designed more like a miniature trinket box than something disposable, it’s built with a sturdy form meant to be kept, refilled, and displayed. The box opens with intention, revealing matches inside while carrying the charm of an heirloom object. When the last match is struck, the box doubles as a tiny keepsake - because good design deserves a second act.
