Puffin Blue

£50.00

A little puffin, a collection of vintage matchboxes and a whole lot of blue.

Puffin Blue is an original shadowbox artwork featuring nine vintage matchboxes, mostly dating from the 1950s–1980s. At its centre is a charming matchbox featuring a puffin, surrounded by a carefully chosen collection of other designs in varying shades of blue.

The different colours, illustrations and vintage typography come together to create a cohesive composition, with each matchbox adding its own little piece of graphic history. Once everyday objects, these miniature printed designs are now given a new lease of life as an unusual piece of collectible wall art.

A one-of-a-kind artwork for lovers of vintage matchboxes, birdlife, nostalgic design and anyone with a soft spot for unusual objects with a story to tell.
