Most are sedge, water hyacinth or bamboo, handwoven in Thailand. DOL LA VA is rattan and MON CHI TA is banana leaf sheath, while RA SI TA and Lavila are listed as natural fibers. Among the coasters, WAN NA and FUNDEE are rattan and the KA NOK PUN set is water hyacinth with a jute edge. A few designs, such as KUL CHA, do not state a material.
Round placemats are 30 cm (12 in) across, except YA NI SA at 25 cm (10 in). Rectangular placemats come in 46 x 36 cm (18 x 14 in), 45 x 30 cm (18 x 12 in) or, for the bamboo designs, 40 x 27 cm (16 x 11 in). Most coasters are 10 cm (4 in) across, and the LAVINLIA table runner is 150 cm (59 in) long.
Most placemats are listed individually, so you can buy as many as your table needs. BE LIN DA is sold as a set of 4 bamboo placemats, and every coaster design comes as a set of 4. The LAVINLIA table runner is sold on its own, in the same blue and natural sedge as the LAVINLIA placemat.
For larger orders, see our bulk placemats collection. On this page, most placemats are listed one at a time and BE LIN DA comes as a set of 4, while the FUNDEE and PI MA IA coaster sets are suggested for cafés and restaurants as well as homes. As every piece is handwoven, expect small differences in size, weave and tone across a large order.
Most product pages advise wiping with a damp cloth, letting the placemat air dry and storing it flat to keep its shape. RUN CHI TA and WI RA KAN can also be stored gently rolled. For LAVINLIA, spot clean as needed, let it dry fully before storing and avoid soaking or machine washing. The Lavin care notes also advise avoiding long exposure to moisture.
