Know before you buy
These placemats are not machine washable. To maintain their appearance, spot clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, ensuring you do not submerge them in water.
No, these placemats are not heat resistant. We recommend using heat-proof trivets or coasters for any hot dishes to protect both the natural grass fibers and your table surface.
Yes, each placemat measures 44 cm by 32 cm (approximately 17.32 x 12.6 inches). This generous sizing provides ample space for a full dinner plate, cutlery, and glassware.
Because these placemats are hand-woven from natural grass fibers, slight variations in texture and color are expected. These unique characteristics are a hallmark of the artisanal process and ensure each piece is one-of-a-kind.
These placemats are designed specifically for indoor use. Exposure to direct sunlight, moisture, or outdoor elements may cause the natural fibers to degrade or discolor over time.
