Designed to be both useful and handsome, they typically paired a substantial glass body with a sterling silver collar.\u003cbr\u003eThe matches were held in the opening at the center, while the finely ribbed glass surface provided the texture needed to strike the friction matches of the period. Their pleasing weight and simple spherical forms made them as decorative as they were practical.\u003cbr\u003eToday, we love these antique match strikers repurposed alongside a favorite candle—an elegant little object from another era, still perfectly suited to the ritual of striking a match.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"elsie green","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51791041265910,"sku":"194916","price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2336\/3701\/files\/EG_SKU100426341.jpg?v=1791261473","url":"https:\/\/elsiegreen.com\/products\/crystal-and-sterling-match-striker","provider":"elsie green","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
