The Rustic Match Co.


HI MY NAME IS ELAINE AND I AM THE OWNER OF THE RUSTIC MATCH CO.

AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS YEAR, I WAS WORKING AS CABIN CREW FOR VIRGIN ATLANTIC, BUT UNFORTUNATELY DUE TO THE CORONA VIRUS, WAS SADLY MADE REDUNDANT FROM A JOB THAT I LOVED DEARLY.

SO, THIS VENTURE WAS BORN OUT OF DAYS OF SITTNG AT HOME WHILST BEING FURLOUGHED. 

I WANTED TO CREATE SOMETHING THAT NOT ONLY WAS USEFUL,  BUT LOOK ASTHETICALLY PLEASING TOO.

IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN AMBITION TO RUN A LITTLE COMPANY OF MY OWN AND NOW I AM I COULD'NT BE HAPPIER.

THE MATCHES ARE MADE FROM SUSTAINABLE WOOD - BASICALLY OFF CUTS OF DISGUARDED WOOD THAT NOONE WANTS, FROM THE FORESTS IN LITHUANIA.

THE MATCH HEADS ARE MADE FROM IRON THAN SULPUR, SO MORE ECO FRIENDLY TO LIGHT.

ALL OF MY PACKAGING IS RECYCLABLE EXCEPT THE PACKING TAPE.
