Gone Rural Round Placemat 28cm / White Trim

Rustic hand-woven placemat made from unique grass native to Swaziland.

---DETAILS---

Made from lutindzi, a fibrous grass that is sustainable by default as the roots do not need to be cut, this hand-woven placemat makes a beautiful addition to any table setting. Due to its strong, waxy finish, this placemat made from lutindzi is waterproof and stain-resistant. To clean, all you have to do is wipe it down with a damp cloth and, for tougher stuck-on bits, brush it off with a toothbrush or small cleaning brush. Every Gone Rural item is made in Swaziland by the company's network of local women artisans, who use native hand-weaving techniques passed down through generations.

---BENEFITS---

'Wonderfully tactile and with a subtle, fresh fragrance, Gone Rural's woven tableware has been around since the 1970s and is popular in over 30 countries for good reason. Every piece is made using traditional techniques in the homes of Swazi weavers, who have unparalleled skill and knowledge in working with this unique material.'
