This little metal matchbox feels like a relic shaped from someone’s longing — small, strange, and quietly alive.
The lid slides open with a soft click, and the top is sculpted from polymer clay, sealed in glossy UV resin so it looks almost like living skin. In the center, a torn heart shape is carved open — not cute, not cartoon, but raw — and inside it stares a single pink eye, warm and unsettling at the same time.
It doesn’t blink, but it feels like it understands something about you — the kind of gaze that sees both softness and danger in the same heartbeat.
The back of the case works as a strike surface, so you can light a match directly on the box.
It arrives empty (no matches included), ready for your own flame ritual — whether that’s a candle, intention, or just the comfort of fire.
Every detail is handmade — sculpted, painted, sealed — so each heart looks freshly opened and every eye has its own personality.
