Know before you buy
These placemats are not machine washable. We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent to preserve the fabric's texture and color.
The placemat is made from a blend of cotton and linen, which gives it a natural, slightly rustic feel. Because it incorporates recycled fibers, you may notice small variations in the weave, which adds to the unique character of each piece.
These placemats are designed specifically for indoor use. They are not treated for outdoor conditions, so it is best to keep them in your dining room or kitchen.
No, the Unikko placemats are not reversible. The iconic poppy pattern is featured on one side, and they are finished with a clean, hemmed edge.
The fabric is not treated with a stain-resistant finish. Given the natural cotton and linen blend, it is best to wipe up spills immediately to prevent them from setting into the fibers.
