Know before you buy

The ribbed surface is integrated into the ceramic construction, meaning it is durable and will not lose its texture or effectiveness through regular use.
Each match strike is handcrafted by ceramicist Julia Finlayson, so you should expect slight variations in shape and finish. These unique imperfections are part of the design and ensure that every piece is one-of-a-kind.
Yes, the piece is designed for tabletop use. Its dimensions of 2.5” x 2.75” x 2.75” provide a solid, weighted base that remains stable while you strike a match.
You can easily clean the ceramic surface by wiping it down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh abrasives to maintain the integrity of the oat-colored finish.
