Antique Handmade Solid Brass Match Box Holder

A quiet, golden piece of hearthside history. This antique brass matchbox holder is entirely handmade, likely dating to the late 19th or early 20th century. Its solid form is softened by time, worn edges, a gentle patina, and two visible copper hand-riveted nails on the base speak to the care with which it was crafted and used.⁠

Designed to hold a standard-sized matchbox upright, it would once have lived beside a fireplace or oil lamp, ready to strike a spark on chilly evenings. We love how it elevates the everyday, offering beauty in function.⁠

Style it on a mantle or shelf with your favourite candle, keep it in a kitchen nook or have it take pride of place on the coffee table.
