Welcome to Phillumenart

Where Nostalgia Meets Artistry for you to discover your piece of history!

Our Story

Nestled in the historic city of York, Phillumenart is not just a business; it's a passion project that started with bringing the vibrant spirit of 1950s-1960s Czechoslovakia to life through the charming medium of matchbox labels.

We continue to expand our little world of matchbox labels, regularly updating our shop with lively new prints. We are a small, independent team of enthusiasts dedicated to curating and transforming these nostalgic gems into stunning artistic prints that capture the essence of a bygone era.

The History of Matchbox Labels

Coined as Pocket Promotions within a world where marketing was, and still remains to be, pricey; companies used the essential staple of a match box to advertise products, services, sports and ideologies. The beauty of the art behind the prints acted as tool to express the information.

The message? Light is an essential. Art is a luxury.
