Silver-Plated and Shell Matchbox Cover

$515

Objet Luxe’s designs are driven by nature, so no two pieces are ever the same. The Crab matchbox cover’s craft tale reflects this, as the fittings vary to synchronise with the size of the lion’s paw shell being used. Moulds are created to match nature’s plan, which are sculpted in wax, cast in brass, plated in silver and coated with lacquer. The result is quirky, curious and a certified conversation piece for the home. Although photographed with matches, this item will ship without. Please note, as this item is made by hand, irregularities in size and finish are to be expected. All materials are ethically, sustainably sourced and never endangered.
