Description
This set of four square coasters brings a bright little meadow to the table, each one printed with the same Wild Flowers design on a soft cream ground. The print is split into six clusters of blooms: lilac and blue asters, red poppies with pale green centres, tall pink foxgloves, pink mallow with its broad leaves, sunny yellow flowers and a spray of tiny blue forget-me-nots, all drawn in a clean, graphic style with plenty of leafy green between them. Each coaster is 10cm square and 0.3cm thick, with gently rounded corners, so it sits neatly under a mug, a teacup or a glass without taking over the table.
Because all four match, they look tidy laid out together on a coffee table, spread along a dining table for supper with friends, or kept by the kettle for the next round of tea. They are just as handy on a desk or a bedside table, where a morning coffee or a glass of water so often ends up. We think they suit a kitchen with a cottage feel or a sitting room with plants on the windowsill. Four is a sensible number for a small household or one place each at a table for four, and the set makes an easy, cheerful present to give.
Each coaster has a wooden core with the printed paper surface on top and a cork backing underneath, which gives a natural finish where it meets the table. Being so slim, they stack flat in a drawer or on a shelf between uses. To keep the print looking fresh, wipe the surface with a damp cloth and dry it straight away, and avoid soaking them, as is good practice for wood and cork. Keep a little pile beside the teapot, or lay one at each place with a small jug of garden flowers in the middle for a fresh, summery table.
