Archivist matches are a luxury brand of matches that are made in the UK. All handmade candle lovers need a selection of accessories to enhance the perfect ambience and home candle experience. Archivist matches are renowned for their stunning quality and their match boxes are amazing and way too beautiful to throw away! Their high-quality long matches, extra-long matches and their stylish matchboxes are often used as gifts. They are also popular among collectors.
Archivist matches are made with a special blend of wood that is designed to burn slowly and evenly. The matches are also treated with a special coating that makes them waterproof and windproof. Archivist matches come in a variety of designs, including matchboxes that are decorated with vintage prints, matchboxes that are made from recycled materials, and matchboxes that are designed by artists.
What is Letterpress Printing?
The match boxes are also truly stunning. Archivist explains how they are made.
“Letterpress printing uses a press that inks the image then ‘stamps’ the paper. The process has changed little since the Gutenberg bible was published in 1455. These days a few of the manual processes have been replaced by engineering advances, but it is still guided through under the watchful eye of a master printer. The result is a product with a unique texture and an unrivalled finish.”
