Know before you buy
Because these are crafted from natural Iraca palm, they should be spot-cleaned only. Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to gently wipe the surface, and avoid submerging the placemat in water or using harsh cleaning chemicals.
No, these placemats are designed for indoor use only. The natural palm fibers and the internal wire frame may be damaged by moisture or direct exposure to outdoor elements.
Yes, the Yellow and Pink colorway is vibrant and true to the images. However, because each piece is hand-woven by artisans using natural materials, slight variations in color saturation or fiber texture are expected and part of the product's unique charm.
Yes, the placemat is constructed around a sturdy wire frame, which helps it maintain its round shape and lie flat against your table surface. At 0.2 inches thick, it provides a stable base for your dinnerware.
At 14.5 inches in diameter, this placemat is generously sized to accommodate most standard dinner plates while still allowing the geometric pattern to show around the edges.
