Your Table Comes Alive

Set under a plate, a round hand woven straw placemat immediately changes how a table is perceived, set for every day or for a meal with loved ones. The tight spiral of natural straw forms a firm, even disc, the result of precise handwork you feel under your fingers from the first use. Its fully handmade construction gives it a slight irregularity that sets each piece apart. It goes with stoneware as well as raw linen, with no coordination effort.

When Straw Dresses Your Table

Laying a round hand woven straw placemat on your tablecloth brings an object shaped gesture after gesture into your daily life, whose regular weave shows attention paid to each crossing of strands. The tight circular weave gives each placemat a firm hold under the plate, without warping from meal to meal. Natural straw, with its golden tone variations and slight irregularities typical of handwork, gives each piece a singular character no factory production can reproduce. Under an everyday or carefully set place setting, this round placemat goes with raw stoneware as well as fine porcelain.

A Useful, Lively Placemat

Setting the table becomes meaningful when the mat under each plate is woven by hand, strand by strand, in carefully selected straw. Our round hand woven straw placemat fully plays its protective role while bringing a warm presence to the tablecloth or the raw wood of a dining table. The round shape softens the angles of the tableware and makes for a balanced table composition. The handcrafted weave, visible in each row of fibers, reveals the patience and precision of the human gesture that shapes it.

Frequently asked questions

How big is the placemat?

It measures 15 in (38 cm) across, a round size that holds a dinner plate with room around it for cutlery.

How many should I order?

It is sold by the piece, so order one per guest. Mixing two or three styles in the same tones makes a relaxed, layered table.

Can I put a hot dish on it?

Warm plates are fine. For a pot straight off the stove or out of the oven, add a trivet so the natural fibers are never exposed to high heat.

How do I clean it?

Brush off crumbs, then wipe with a damp cloth and a drop of mild soap. Let it dry flat, away from direct heat. Do not soak it or put it in the dishwasher.
