Know before you buy
No, the Sfera Match Holder is sold as a decorative vessel and does not include matches. It is designed to hold standard-sized strike-anywhere matches.
The knurled natural brass top is designed to provide the necessary friction to ignite strike-anywhere matches. Simply strike the match head against the textured brass surface to light.
The base is crafted from honed marble, which is a natural stone. While it is smooth, we recommend placing it on a coaster or a soft surface if you are concerned about potential scratching on delicate wood or glass tabletops.
The Sfera features natural, unlacquered brass, which will develop a unique patina over time as it is exposed to air and touch. If you prefer a bright look, you can periodically polish it with a brass cleaner.
Wipe the marble base with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately to prevent water spots. For the brass, use a dry microfiber cloth to remove dust or a specialized metal polish if you wish to restore its original luster.
