WHY DO YOU LIKE AND COLLECT MATCHES?

Matches are one of those objects which easily combine the functional and the emotional sphere. We love how they can bring back memories from past experiences and at the same time the gesture of lighting up something when using them.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE ONES AND WHY?

We are particularly attached to two boxes we bought in Mexico in a small artisan “tienda”; they truly remind us of that inspiring trip every time we use them.

WHEN AND HOW DO YOU LIKE TO ENJOY YOUR MATCHES?

Mainly to light up candles or Palo Santo; but some boxes, which are particularly pretty, end up on a perfume shelf or a coffee table as decor pieces.
