Every year I have done gift shows I have been asked for a holder fo wooden matches. The customers asking for this are older – those than can remember the ‘Old Fashioned’ match holder that hung by their grandparents wood stove or fireplace. This product would be useful to any one with a wood stove, fireplace, BBQ, or to someone that just wanted to have wooden matches at that ready. Great for a cottage, workshop as well. With this Machbox holder you will never have to rummage through the kitchen junk drawer again for matches! * Our match box takes a standard 250 wooden match box available from any hardware store. * There is a slot on the right side to access the striker strip. * Although you cannot see it I have put a hole in the back near the bottom so that it could be fastened top and bottom. This holds it firmly so that when you use the striker pad, the holder doesn’t move. * Handmade * Could be painted * Dimensions Height: 7.75", Depth: 3", Width: 3.25"
