A burning match, a consumable artifact for producing fire under controlled circumstances on demand. A match is typically a wooden stick (usually sold in boxes) or stiff paper stick (usually sold in matchbooks) coated at one end with a material, the match head, often containing the element phosphorus, that will ignite from the heat of friction if struck against a suitable surface.
