    Product Details

    A love letter to vintage Indian matchbox art, reimagined for the wall. Bullhead Matchbox magnifies a familiar collectible into a bold, witty relic—its fierce, festooned bull head pops in relief while tiny graphic motifs nod to bazaar nostalgia.

    Sculpted using dense metallic embroidery on a smooth suede ground, each horn, eye and border is raised with meticulous padding for true 3-D form. The “striking surface” runs along both sides, stitched in a cross-hatch of metallic thread. We frame it in a handcrafted pine wood box shaped like a real matchbox; the artwork projects 3.5" from the wall for dramatic shadow-play. As with all handmade Underlyn pieces, subtle variation is part of its character—your artwork will be uniquely yours.

    Product Dimensions: 17.5” × 21.5” × 3.5”

    What’s Included:
    • Ready-to-hang framed embroidered wall art (3D)
    • Handcrafted pine wood box frame shaped like a matchbox
    • Soft suede textile base with metallic thread embroidery
    • Hanging hardware
    • Secure, corrugated packaging

    Note: Since every Underlyn product is an original work of art that’s handmade, subtle variations may occur in colour and/or craftsmanship. This is what makes our products truly one-of-a-kind.

    Care Details

    - The safest way to remove loose dust and dirt is by carefully using a lint roller or a soft brush on the textile.
    - Vacuuming can also be done using a nozzle covered with muslin or stocking, held on with an elastic band.
    - Keep away from excessive moisture and humidity. Do not display it in cold and damp areas.
    - Remember to occasionally dust off the back of the frame to prevent dust particles from harming the artwork.
    - Do not pull any loose ends. Clip them with scissors.

    Stylist's Notes

    • Arched entry, candlelit glow

    • Arched entry, candlelit glow

    In an arched niche or entryway, let the piece sit solo above a low wood credenza. Think earthy and quiet—greige plaster, espresso wood, a couple of stoneware bowls and pillar candles. A brass picture light on a low, warm dim adds a beautiful sheen to the embroidery. Skip busy patterns; one textured tray or a burnished bowl is enough. The ochres in the artwork do the rest, warming the whole corner like a pocket of evening light.

    Let Bullhead Matchbox be the star above a walnut or teak console. Stay in a warm palette—tobacco, oat and charcoal—so the metallic stitches and suede depth really sing. Keep styling simple: a ribbed glass vase with dried stems, a black metal candleholder and a small stack of linen-bound books. Give the artwork a little breathing room around the edges and, if you can, add a slim brass picture light for a soft, golden glow. Echo the matchbox geometry with cane, leather and matte ceramics for a clean, collected look.
