matched set

Items that correspond

A matched set is a group of items designed to go together, sharing the same style, pattern, or design: a matched set of luggage, a matched set of pearls.

The phrase emphasizes that the pieces were intentionally coordinated rather than assembled haphazardly.

It can extend figuratively to people who complement each other: Those two are a matched set.
