Bold, witty and full of personality, the I Do It Because I Can Luxury Matches from Archivist Gallery feature a mischievous black and white cat knocking over a mug, alongside the unapologetic words: “I do it because I can, I can because I want to, I want to because you said I couldn’t.” Designed by artist Charlotte Farmer, this playful illustration also features on Archivist’s matching letterpress card, making it a standout piece for cat lovers and design enthusiasts alike.
Striking in every sense, each signature square box is filled with 125 matchsticks ready to spark a little joy. Perfect for lighting candles, fireplaces or incense, these matches are designed to add character to coffee tables, mantelpieces and gift drawers - a bold and thoughtful candle add-on.
Designed and letterpress printed in Britain, these matchboxes reflect Archivist Gallery’s heritage of craftsmanship, playfulness and thoughtful design. Proudly family-founded and run since 1996, and awarded the King’s Award for Export in 2023, Archivist continues to create joyful objects for everyday life.
