Know before you buy
While they are made from heavyweight paper stock, they are printed with rubber-based ink that prevents the design from running when wet. They are designed to be durable and will dry flat for repeated use.
Each purchase includes a set of eight coasters, making them well-suited for hosting small gatherings or parties.
Each coaster measures 4 inches in diameter, which is a standard size that accommodates most glassware, mugs, and tumblers.
These coasters are intended for indoor use only. Because they are crafted from paper stock, they are best suited for dining tables, coffee tables, or home bars.
The illustrations are applied using a traditional letterpress printing method. This technique presses the design into the paper, creating a tactile, high-quality finish.
