Blue wisteria placemat

Blue wisteria has something soothing about it, with its long clusters swaying at the slightest breath of air. This cotton placemat blue keeps all its serenity: clusters of wisteria tumbling across the fabric, in a delicate, fresh motif, like a flowering branch laid flat at each place.

Each piece is hand block-printed on good-quality cotton, in the artisan workshops of our partners in India, where block printing is a craft handed down through generations. Every impression carries the small variations of the gesture, the mark of a genuinely handmade textile rather than an industrial print. The design is created in France, in the soft, flowering spirit dear to the house.

A placemat dresses without covering. Laid on bare wood, it brings freshness to the timber without hiding it. Over a white or natural tablecloth, it adds a calm square of colour and gives each guest a clear place.

On a sideboard or a console, it dresses a bare surface with very little effort. Stacked in a drawer, it comes out in seconds.

This cotton placemat blue is made to be used. The cotton is hard-wearing and machine washable, it grows softer over time while keeping its colour, and it copes with spring lunches and long dinners alike. Washed at thirty degrees and ironed while still slightly damp, it keeps its shape and its soft tone.

It works with white china, linen, pale wood and natural materials, and needs almost nothing around it: a few glasses and a branch of flowers are enough. You can pair it with the matching Wisteria napkins and tablecloth.

Left alone on a wooden table, it brings a note of spring indoors on its own.

An artisanal, serene and hard-wearing piece of table linen, for anyone who likes tables that feel calm, luminous and quietly in bloom.
