Hand-Woven Straw Placemats (Set of 4) – Heat-Resistant Moroccan Table Art

Hand-Woven Heritage from Morocco

Every straw placemat in this four-piece set begins its journey on the sun-drenched outskirts
of Marrakech. Berber artisans gather doum palm leaves, soften them in water, and coil each strand by hand.
following a centuries-old spiral technique that imbues every mat with subtle personality. When you set the
table with this straw placemat set, you support families who keep Morocco’s living craft heritage alive.

Naturally Stylish, Perfectly Sized

Measuring roughly 24 cm / 9.44 in in diameter (allowing a handmade ±1 cm variation), the placemats mix sage,
olive and toasted-hay tones to create an earthy gradient that flatters ceramics, glassware, and stoneware alike.
Style them alongside our hand-thrown Moroccan
plates & bowls for a cohesive tablescape, or layer them under taper-lit lanterns from our
brass lamp collection to channel
Medina-inspired warmth.

Durability Meets Versatility

• Heat resistant: The dense palm coil safely supports sizzling skillets and casserole dishes.
• Dual-purpose: Use each straw placemat as a charger, trivet, or natural décor base.
• Indoor–outdoor: Breezy enough for patio brunches, sturdy enough for cozy winter suppers.
• Compact storage: At only 6 mm thick, the set stows flat inside shallow drawers.

Care & Eco-Cred

Shake off crumbs and wipe clean with a damp cloth; avoid soaking. To refresh the fibers, leave each
straw placemat in gentle morning sun for 30 minutes—the warmth tightens the weave and revives
its subtle palm aroma. Fully biodegradable, the mats return to the earth at end of life, echoing our ethos of

sustainability in handicrafts.

For Homes, Cafés & Boutique Hotels

Restaurant stylists love how the muted greens amplify the vibrant colors of tagines and mezze spreads. Boutique
