Archivist A Perfect Match Giant Matches
Ohhhh BEEHIVE! Picture this: it's a hot summer's day, flowers in bloom, soft grass underfoot, white-hot sunshine beaming down, the unmistakable buzz of British honeybees carried through a gentle breeze. This dreamy tissue paper encapsulate a traditional bee hive in an English country hedgerow, printed in the UK in gold ink.
Archivist uses the traditional letterpress printing technique to create its range of cards and stationery. Founded in 1994 by Sarah and William Allardice, the brand aims to create timeless pieces that imbue a sense of fun, as well as being useful. Archivist’s luxury matches come in printed boxes that double as keepsakes themselves, making them an ideal gift, whilst the charming designs on their greeting cards offer universal appeal. Some of London’s finest museums back the brand; the V&A are a stockist and the Natural History Museum commissioned its own collection.
