A Long Letterpress Matchbox is one of those small everyday pieces that quietly makes life a little nicer. Slim, elegant and thoughtfully designed, this long matchbox is as practical as it is decorative. Inside you’ll find extra-long matches that are ideal for lighting fireplaces, wood burners, candles and storm lanterns with ease, keeping hands safely away from the flame.

Each box contains 45 matches, measuring an impressive 280 mm in length. The generous size feels satisfying to use and makes this matchbox a favourite to keep on display rather than hidden away in a drawer. The design is printed using traditional letterpress techniques, where ink is pressed deeply into the paper for a rich, tactile finish that gives every box its distinctive character.

Sustainability plays an important role in this piece. The matchbox and its packaging are made with care and respect for the environment and are fully recyclable or biodegradable. It’s a small object, but one that reflects a conscious choice for better materials and thoughtful production. A lovely addition to your coffee table, fireplace or shelf, and a simple gift that feels special without trying too hard.
