Details

The placemat is made of jute, which is a natural fiber. It is also called "the golden fiber" because of its shiny golden color.

The fiber is extracted from the bark of the jute plant and goes through an extensive processing process before it becomes a finished jute product. Jute is an environmentally friendly material because the jute plant requires very little water. 

As the products are handmade, no two products will ever be exactly alike. We hope that you will appreciate the small features of the products and their history as much as we do - and we hope that you will enjoy them for many years to come. 

Care

• Can not be machine washed
• Shake your placemat or wipe it with a slightly damp cloth
