Dating back to the late 1800s, this ceramic match striker is a tangible piece of French bistro culture designed for Bonal Gentiane Quina, a classic French aperitif wine created in 1865. Known as "ouvre l'appétit" (key to the appetite). The white porcelain form is punctuated by original advertising in a vibrant red-orange, with a base featuring a textured surface, thoughtfully integrated for striking matches.
