Yellow Green Fruit Placemat

15,00  VAT INCLUDED

Yellow and green is the orchard in spring, just before the fruit turns red. This cotton placemat yellow and green captures that freshness: stylised, luminous fruit set on a cotton that breathes the youth of the season.

Each piece is hand block-printed on good-quality cotton, in the artisan workshops of our partners in India, where block printing has been handed down through generations. The slight irregularity of the gesture gives the fabric a life of its own, those small variations that mark out a genuinely handmade textile. The design is created in France, in the luminous, natural spirit of the collection.

A placemat dresses a setting without covering the table. Laid 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 lifts the whole setting, especially at the end of winter.

On a long table, the repeated motif creates an easy rhythm. Stacked in a drawer, it is ready in seconds.

This cotton placemat yellow and green is made to be used. The cotton is hard-wearing and machine washable, it grows softer with time while keeping the freshness of its colours, and it takes breakfasts, long lunches and family meals without fuss. Washed at thirty degrees and ironed while still slightly damp, it keeps its shape and its brightness.

It works with white china, natural tones and pale wood, and needs very little around it beyond a bowl of fruit. You can pair it with the matching Fruit napkins and tablecloth.

Left alone on a wooden table, it is enough to bring a note of spring indoors.

An artisanal, fresh and hard-wearing piece of table linen, for anyone who likes tables as bright as the return of fine days.

Care

General care instructions for artisan-printed cotton table linen:

  • Machine wash at 30°C or 40°C maximum, on a gentle cycle, to help preserve the colours.
  • Do not use bleach or whitening products.
  • Avoid fabric softener, as it may dull the colours over time.
  • Iron on the reverse side of the fabric at a moderate temperature (cotton/wool setting) to preserve the vibrancy of the print.
  • Air dry preferably in the shade; avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which may cause the colours to fade.
