Recently, I got into collecting matchboxes. It is fascinating to me to see the culture influence through these very familiar day-to-day objects.

The round matchbox with giraffe and the small rectangular matchbox with Korean writing are matchboxes my friend Kyung got me from Korea. She also got me the fabric underneath. It is a Korean food cover fabric. My friend Yu got me the matchbox with clocks from Japan.

This one I brought back from Malaysia when I visited home early this year.
