Know before you buy
This placemat is handcrafted from woven raffia, a natural fiber known for its durability and textured, organic aesthetic.
Because raffia is a natural material, it should be spot-cleaned gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid submerging it in water or using harsh cleaning chemicals, as these can damage the fibers and the vibrant dye.
Yes, the round design is sized to comfortably hold a standard dinner plate while still allowing the fish motif and turquoise border to remain visible as a decorative frame.
The placemat features a central lattice pattern and woven texture, which provides a slightly raised, tactile surface. It is stable enough for dinnerware, though it offers more texture than a traditional fabric or vinyl placemat.
These placemats are perfect for covered outdoor dining or coastal-themed patios. However, because they are made of natural raffia, it is best to keep them out of direct rain or prolonged moisture to maintain their shape and color.
