Vintage Match Striker Matchstick Holder Advertising Cassis

This Portellan object exudes pure nostalgia! Originally, match holders of this kind with a lighting surface were used in bistros and pubs in France at the beginning of the 20th century. With advertising lettering, they are a popular collector's item and can still be used to light matches today with the right matches (Cowboy Matches). Either way, they are an extraordinary decoration!

Since these everyday objects are over 100 years old and usually show heavy signs of wear or are defective, we have a particularly rare piece here.
