Crystal & Bronze Petal-Rim Match Holder

Thick crystal lobes open like petals above a low bronze base, catching the light beautifully along their scalloped edges. Likely originally intended as a salt cellar, this charming little piece offers a lovely opportunity for modern-day repurposing. We especially love the idea of filling it with matches and placing it beside a favorite candle, where its sculptural bronze details and delicate crystal can be appreciated in everyday living.
