The Matchbox Holder collection by Forwood Design transforms a simple household item into a refined decorative detail. Designed for homeowners and interior designers who appreciate thoughtful finishing touches, each holder combines elegant craftsmanship with everyday practicality. Made from high-quality stainless steel and finished with Henry Forwood’s signature faux shagreen, these pieces offer the distinctive texture and depth associated with traditional shagreen while remaining durable and easy to maintain.
This highly realistic faux finish is one of Henry Forwood’s most recognisable decorative techniques, carefully developed to recreate the character of natural shagreen through a detailed, hand-applied surface pattern. The result is a tactile design that feels sophisticated and timeless, framed beautifully by the clean lines of polished stainless steel.
Created to fit standard UK large matchboxes, each Matchbox Holder keeps matches neatly concealed while adding a subtle accent to coffee tables, mantelpieces, dining tables, and candle displays. Available in a range of colours including Charcoal, Coral, Lincoln Green, Caviar Black, Duke Blue, Mulberry, Pink, and Teal, the collection allows interiors to be styled with personality and cohesion.
Lightweight yet durable, these holders function as small decorative objects—perfect for curated interiors or as thoughtful gifts for housewarmings, weddings, or special celebrations.
