Placemat in Cyan

This is a woven cotton placemat with enough weight to sit still under a plate, not skate around every time someone reaches for the salt. The cyan is a matte, saturated color, not a print, so it doesn’t fade to chalk after a season of washes. It goes through the machine without needing to be ironed back into shape afterward, and a damp cloth takes care of most spills in one pass. Set it under everyday stoneware or the good plates for company, it reads the same either way: clean, deliberate, a little more considered than a paper napkin under a bowl. Buy a set of four or six depending on how often people actually sit down at your table.
