Natural History Museum Minerals Matches

The Archivist journey began in 1998 down in the archives of the Natural History Museum and is an element of their past that they are incredibly proud to celebrate. In 2025, they pay homage to this crucial part of our beginnings by releasing a range of matchbox designs that have been made in collaboration with the Natural History Museum.

This design has been inspired by the artworks of French mineralogist Francois Louis Swebach Desfontaines (1749-1793) who created a series of exquisite watercolour drawings depicting mineral specimens in boxwork cabinets.
