19th-century Pyrogen Matchbox With Straw Marquetry
These small folk art objects made of straw marquetry still possess great charm and allure. Here, I’m offering you a pyrogenic matchbox from a time when matches were made of sulfur and lit easily. It features a geometric design with purple-dyed straw and a touch of green contrasting with the natural hue; the grooved scraper appears to be made of ivory.
