A tiger with surprisingly good interior design instincts
Some designs immediately brighten a room. The Archivist Green Tiger Matches from the Square collection do exactly that. Set amongst flourishing plants, delicate flowers and soft green tones, a vibrant orange tiger leaps through an enchanting botanical landscape. Created by illustrator Ariane Butto, the artwork blends elements of traditional folk art, natural history illustration and playful imagination. The result feels whimsical, elegant and full of personality – as though a storybook tiger has quietly wandered into your home and made itself comfortable.
Measuring 11 x 11 cm with a depth of 3 cm, the square matchbox contains approximately 125 premium matches, each around 10 cm long. The coordinating yellow match heads beautifully echo the warm accents within the artwork, creating a thoughtfully designed object from every angle. Rich greens, warm oranges, soft creams and delicate floral details combine to give the matchbox a distinctive and uplifting presence.
Whether placed beside a scented candle, displayed on a coffee table or styled on a shelf, the Archivist Green Tiger Matches bring colour, charm and character into everyday spaces. A practical object that feels wonderfully decorative at the same time.
For the rituals that make a house feel like home

Containing approximately 125 matches, the box offers long-lasting practicality while also making a thoughtful gift. Perfect for hosts, design lovers and anyone who appreciates home accessories with personality, its detailed illustration continues to reveal new discoveries over time.
