Made from 100% abaca, each 15-inch round has the texture and slight irregularity expected from natural handwork, while the star shape introduces just enough pattern to distinguish the set beneath simple plates. Sold as a set of four, the placemats suggest the coast without requiring a seaside room around them; white porcelain, blue-and-white china, clear glass, and natural wood all sit easily above the woven surface. The motif reads equally well as star or starfish, which keeps it pleasantly ambiguous.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Stars and starfish can share a silhouette; that ambiguity is half the charm. I would use these well beyond a beach table because the natural fibre keeps the motif grounded. A plain plate on top is enough—the woven star can be the quiet surprise underneath.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Mrs. Mayfair\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% abaca\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15″ diameter each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet of 4 placemats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue-and-natural star motif\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandwoven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural irregularities are expected\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare \u0026amp; Ownership\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpot clean with a soft, dry brush and do not submerge in water.
