Description
Some colours carry their intention in their name. This printed placemat yellow and blue is no exception: a motif made for joy, where solar yellow and deep blue answer each other in a luminous, high-spirited contrast.
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. The design is created in France, in the cheerful, colourful spirit of the house.
A placemat dresses a table without covering it. Set on bare wood, it brings light to the timber and gives each guest a place of their own. Over a white or natural tablecloth, it adds a square of colour that wakes up the whole setting.
Stacked in a drawer, it comes out in seconds for a weekday meal. On a long table, the repeated motif creates a cheerful rhythm.
This printed placemat yellow and blue is made for real use. The cotton is hard-wearing and machine washable, it grows softer with time while keeping the brightness of its colours, and it takes breakfasts, sunlit lunches and family meals without fuss. Washed at thirty degrees and ironed while still slightly damp, it keeps its shape.
The blue grounds and calms it, the yellow makes it shine. It works especially well in a light room, with white china and touches of natural wood. You can pair it with the matching Joy napkins and tablecloth.
Left alone on a wooden table, it is often enough to lift a grey morning.
An artisanal, luminous and hard-wearing piece of table linen, for anyone who likes tables that put you in a good mood.
