The Matchbox by Marlene Print House

This isn’t your ordinary matchbox - it’s a keepsake. Designed more like a miniature trinket box than something disposable, it’s built with a sturdy form meant to be kept, refilled, and displayed. The box opens with intention, revealing matches inside while carrying the charm of an heirloom object. Over time, as you refill and reuse it, it becomes less about lighting a candle and more about the ritual of reaching for something worth saving.

The Chartreuse Pony Matchbox: Same playful pony, but on a brighter background! Choose this colorway if you’re looking for extra cheer  — the stripes of watercolor horses bring energy, charm, and festive joy to every gift.

The Fish Matchbox: Our fish pattern is inspired by sardines in a can and brings a touch of character to any tabletop. Painted in warm red watercolor, this matchbox is dressed in sardines from head to tail. Equal parts tidy and cheeky, the design feels both nostalgic and lively.

The Picnic Matchbox: Like a swatch of vintage wallpaper, the picnic pattern brings a touch of charm to any tabletop. Composed of hand-painted green gouache shapes, the print feels timeless yet playful - making it as decorative as it is useful.

The Plum Pony Matchbox: Watercolor horses prance across a rich plum background, bringing warmth, cheer, and a touch of whimsy. We’re especially fond of the playful pony. Deep colors and charming details make this pattern a fresh and delightful way to celebrate the season.
