Description
This is a set of four placemats printed with a hand-painted orange design over a soft striped ground. Each mat measures 46 x 36cm, a generous rectangle that gives a dinner plate room to sit with cutlery either side, so a full place setting has space rather than crowding the edge of the mat. The fabric is 100% polyester, woven rather than smooth, which is what gives the surface its fine ribbed texture and its hard-wearing feel. The oranges are scattered across the cloth with their leaves, sitting against narrow yellow and cream stripes.
These mats are made for the table, and the record tells you they are suited to both indoor and outdoor use, so they are as at home on a kitchen table as on a garden table for a summer lunch. The scattered citrus print is cheerful without being loud, and the pale striped background keeps it easy to live with alongside plain crockery or coloured glassware. Being polyester, they wipe and shake clean quickly between courses, which matters most when you are eating outside and a breeze or a spilled drink is part of the day.
Polyester is a synthetic fibre that resists creasing and dries fast, so these mats bounce back into shape after a wash and do not need much fuss to keep looking tidy. The record states they are machine washable, which makes them practical for everyday meals rather than special occasions only. The supplier notes a matching Fruits Oranges table runner in the same range if you want to carry the citrus theme down the centre of the table. Used on their own, the set of four is enough to lay a table for four with the same print throughout.
