What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Baylor Coasters for their premium quality and meticulous needlepoint craftsmanship. The dark pine colorway and robust construction are frequently highlighted, confirming their status as a substantial, durable accessory. Reviewers value the aesthetic appeal, often treating them as cherished commemorative items perfect for dedicated fans or alumni gifts. The tight stitching and accurate logo representation meet high expectations set by the brand's artistry. While satisfaction is extremely high among those prioritizing lasting quality and unique collegiate design, the significantly higher price point is noted. This premium cost reflects the handcrafted nature and brand cachet, positioning these coasters as luxury items rather than simple utility pieces.
Know before you buy
No, these coasters are not absorbent. They are designed primarily as a decorative accent for your home, so you should wipe away any spills immediately to protect the needlepoint and wood.
These coasters are not heat-resistant. It is best to avoid placing extremely hot drinkware directly on them to prevent potential damage to the wood or the needlepoint stitching.
Because they feature delicate hand-stitched needlepoint, these coasters are not dishwasher safe. We recommend spot-cleaning the surface gently with a slightly damp cloth if needed, ensuring they are dried thoroughly afterward.
No, these coasters do not feature a non-slip backing. They have a solid wood base, so you may want to be mindful when placing them on slick or polished surfaces.
These coasters are intended for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor elements, humidity, or direct sunlight could compromise the wood construction and the integrity of the cotton thread.
