A collection of little pieces of history, brought together in one rather lovely display.
Belga is a one-of-a-kind vintage matchbox shadowbox featuring nine original matchboxes, mostly dating from the 1950s–1980s. Carefully selected and arranged, each brings its own combination of colour, illustration and vintage typography to the composition. Together, they create a fascinating snapshot of everyday graphic design from another era.
There's something wonderfully collectible about old matchboxes. Once ordinary, everyday objects, their distinctive designs and printed details have taken on a new charm with time. This artwork gives them a chance to be appreciated all over again.
A unique piece of vintage wall art for collectors, nostalgia lovers and anyone with an appreciation for graphic design, advertising ephemera and smoking-related antiques.
