Off White Macrame Table Mat (Set Of 2)

What does the knot work on these mats look like?

Each mat is knotted in a lattice with zigzag rows and finished with a deep fringe. The detailed knot work gives a textured base under plates and bowls, and the fringe softens the edges of a table setting.

What size are they?

Each mat is 10 x 10 inches, and you get two in the set. That size sits neatly under a plate, a serving bowl or a small centrepiece, and works well for a table for two or a breakfast tray.

Are they meant for daily use?

Yes, they are made for everyday use as well as small gatherings at home. Use them under plates at a table for two, under a fruit bowl or vase, or as a base for a tea tray.

How should I clean the mats?

Spot clean with a damp cloth and a little mild detergent whenever something spills. Avoid soaking them and don't put them in the washing machine. Let the mats air dry completely before you use them again.

Can I give them as a gift?

Yes, they make a stylish home accessory to gift, and each set of two is hand-knotted in cotton at the Indiehaat Macrame Unit in Maharashtra. Pair them with a set of mugs or a box of tea for a complete present.

How do I style them?

Lay them under grey, white or earthenware plates for a calm, natural setting. They also look good on a wooden or glass table, with cotton napkins and a small vase in the middle. The knot work stays visible around the edge of the plate.
