Know before you buy
These coasters are spot clean only. Gently dab the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow them to air dry completely.
Yes, the sisal and sweetgrass construction is durable enough for outdoor dining. However, it is best to store them indoors when not in use to maintain their appearance and prevent weather-related wear.
Because each coaster is handwoven by artisans, slight variations in size and color are expected. While they are designed to be 4 inches in diameter, you may notice minor differences between individual pieces.
Each coaster is crafted using hand-dyed sisal fibers wrapped around a core of sweetgrass. These are natural, sustainable materials chosen for their strength and traditional aesthetic.
Each set includes four individual coasters, making them a perfect size for a small gathering or a standard dining setup.
