A heavy cast iron match-holder stands atop a six footed stand. The box cover is topped with a handsomely-sculpted dog—recumbent yet attentive. The cast iron is painted in black and gold paint. Strike-anywhere matches (not included) can be struck against the inside of the lid. A strip of sandpaper, inside the cover, may help provide more friction. (4.75" x 4" x 3.25") da13069b
