Description
The Claudia placemat brings a bright summer floral to the table, printed across a cream ground with a slim ribbed weave running through it. Pink and amber blooms trail from one corner in a loose, painterly arrangement, framed by a narrow border of blue and white ticking stripe. Each mat measures 36 x 46cm, a generous rectangle that gives a dinner plate room on either side without crowding the setting. The cloth is 100% polyester, digitally printed so the colour stays crisp across the whole design.
These mats are meant to move between the kitchen table and the garden, which is where a polyester face earns its keep. The supplier describes them as water and UV resistant and suited to both indoor and outdoor dining, so they will sit as happily on a patio at a summer lunch as on the dining table indoors. Lightweight and foldable, they pack down for a picnic or a garden party and shake out again without creasing badly. They pair naturally with plain white china, where the floral does the talking, and with the burgundy napkins shown alongside them.
Polyester is the reason for the easy care here: it does not absorb spills the way a natural fibre does, wipes down quickly and holds printed colour well over repeated use. The supplier states these are machine washable, which makes them practical for a table that sees everyday meals as well as occasions. The floral falls to one side of the mat rather than filling it, so a place setting sits over the plain area and the print reads around the plate. Set four together and the blooms carry across the table as a continuous run.

Frequently Asked
Can these placemats be used outdoors?
Yes. The supplier describes them as water and UV resistant and made for both indoor and outdoor dining, so they suit patios and garden tables as well as the kitchen.
How do I clean them?
They are machine washable. Polyester does not soak up spills the way natural fibres do, so most marks wipe away quickly and the printed colour holds up over repeated washes.
How big is each placemat?
Each mat measures 36 x 46cm, a rectangle wide enough to hold a dinner plate with cutlery on either side without the setting feeling cramped.
Where does the floral pattern sit on the mat?
The blooms trail from one corner across part of the mat, leaving a plain area where a plate sits, so the print reads around the place setting rather than under it.
Are they easy to store and carry?
They are lightweight and foldable, which makes them simple to pack for a picnic or garden party and easy to store flat between meals.
What colour is the border?
The border is a narrow blue and white ticking stripe, which frames the cream ground and the pink and amber floral on each mat.
