Set of 4 Robin Wreath Round Placemats 29cm - White & Brown

This round placemat brings a traditional Christmas robin to the table, perched in the lower curve of a wreath woven from twisted brown twigs. Around him the wreath is dressed with glossy holly leaves, clusters of bright red berries, sprigs of pine, small pine cones and a pair of little jingle bells, with a red ribbon bow tied at the top. The illustration has a soft, watercolour look, so you can pick out the robin's orange breast, his grey cap and the fine twists of every twig. The top is white, which lets the reds and greens stand out clearly, and the edge is a warm tan brown that echoes the colour of the wreath. It measures 29cm across, a generous circle for one place at the table.

Lay it on the dining table for Christmas lunch, or on the kitchen table for festive breakfasts and suppers through December. The robin, holly and pine suit a country kitchen or a cottage dining room, and they bring a touch of tradition to a simple modern table too. The white ground keeps the look fresh against dark wood. It is just as useful away from the plate: placed under a bowl of clementines or a jug of winter greenery, it brings the same festive note to a sideboard, a hall table or a kitchen dresser.

The top is smooth and flat, so a plate, bowl or glass sits level on it, and the plain tan-brown edge gives it a neat, finished outline. As general good practice, wipe the surface with a soft damp cloth after a meal and dry it straight away, then store it flat in a dry cupboard once the festive season is over, ready for next December. For a cheerful table, pair it with white crockery and a red napkin to bring out the berries, and it would make a thoughtful Christmas gift too.
