Strike Up Match Holder+Striker is a minimal design created by Seattle-based designers fruitsuper design. The design takes advantage of the naturally rough texture of the sand casting process to allow users to strike matches directly off the surface of the holder.

Tactile, sculptural, and functional, the container is an instant classic that holds, displays, and strikes your matches. The match strikers are sandcast at the largest independently-owned foundry west of the Mississippi, which was founded in 1922. The “squeeze molds” are carefully packed and poured by skilled workers, ensuring perfect parts each and every time.

Both the Match Strikers and Candle Holders are cast with visible texture and parting lines designed to pay homage to this timeless manufacturing process. The striker is manufactured in the USA, and is constructed of solid aluminum.
