Description
This set of four robin placemats brings a touch of the winter garden to the table. The design shows two robins with warm orange breasts and soft grey caps, perched side by side among glossy holly leaves, heavy clusters of red berries, sprigs of evergreen and pine cones, all lightly flecked with falling snow. The scene sits on a clean white face, so the reds and greens stand out clearly, and the corners are gently rounded. Each placemat is rectangular, 29cm long and 21.5cm wide, so the set lays a table for four people with a matching place at every seat.
These placemats are made for the Christmas table, from the first festive supper of December through to the big day itself and the leftovers that follow. The robins and holly suit a farmhouse kitchen table as easily as a more formal dining room, and the white background keeps the look fresh beside plain or patterned crockery. They sit just as happily under a breakfast bowl as under a Christmas dinner, bringing the season to the table while the rest of the house is still waiting for its decorations. A set of four also makes a thoughtful Christmas gift, ready to lay out the moment it is unwrapped.
Along the edge you can see a light brown, finely layered finish that frames the white face neatly, and the rounded corners keep the outline soft. To keep the print looking its best, wipe each placemat with a soft, slightly damp cloth after use and dry it straight away, rather than soaking it or putting it through a dishwasher. Store the set flat once the season is over so the mats stay true. For a festive table, we like them with red napkins, a sprig of real holly at each place and a plain white dinner service that lets the robins take the lead.
