The Match Keeper
Handmade in stoneware, this match keeper holds a small collection of matches beneath a fitted ceramic lid, with a shallow tray below for resting a match after lighting and a match striker in the front. Made to sit beside your favorite candle, on the mantle, or wherever a little warmth is needed.
Finished in Hearth , a deep, earthy brown- black glaze with subtle variation that gives each piece beautiful organic character.
Each match keeper will include approximately 30 matches.
As with all handmade pottery, slight variations in shape, glaze, and finish are part of what makes each piece special.

Shaped on the wheel
from clay to kiln
From raw clay to its finished form, each piece passes through multiple stages of throwing, trimming, glazing and firing, resulting in subtle variations that make it one of a kind.
Every Piece Shaped by Careful Hands
At YV Ceramics, each cup, bowl, and spoon rest begins as a lump of clay gently coaxed into shape by skilled hands. We work in small batches to ensure every item carries its own story.
No two pieces are exactly alike. This slow, attentive process invites you to appreciate the subtle textures and warm imperfections that make our ceramics feel like a quiet hug in your home.
