About the Item
A charming early 20th-century ceramic match striker featuring bold Apollinaris advertising graphics in deep cobalt blue. This classic bar and bistro accessory combines a flared footed base with a ribbed striker surface and a recessed top well for holding matches.
Apollinaris—known as the “Queen of Table Waters”—was a favored mineral water brand across Europe and America, and branded match strikers like this one were commonly found in hotels, restaurants, and public houses of the era. Its crisp typography, clean ivory ground, and vibrant blue glaze give it exceptional decorative appeal.
