This line of Cire Trudon Matches from the famed candle maker include six reproduction illustrations created by Lawrence Mynott for the French brand's catalog. Often referred to as the Rolls Royce of candles, Cire Trudon is the oldest candle manufacturer
The delicate long matchboxes are white and display a tiny illustration in the center, while the matches are fragranced. The matches are created in order to complement the scents contained in the brand's series of candles, and emit a light scent even when unlit, making them a good item to slip into drawers.
Lawrence Mynott is an English illustrator of children's books and his drawings have become a symbol synonymous with the French candle manufacturing brand.
