Hand-woven placemat for everyday and special tables
The Aquarius Base - Black and White Waves brings the quiet elegance of hand-weaving to your table. You will appreciate how the natural fibre warms up any setting — from a simple weekday meal to a festive arrangement with candles and seasonal flowers. The soft texture and the regular weave pattern create a calm, grounded feel that complements both rustic and minimalist interiors.
Because the material breathes naturally, the placemat does not trap moisture under glassware or warm plates, and it stores flat without losing its shape between uses.
Craftsmanship behind the Water hyacinth
Artisans in Indonesia produce each piece using traditional weaving techniques passed down through generations. The Water hyacinth is hand-twisted, woven and trimmed so that the finished placemat feels sturdy yet keeps the soft, organic character of the raw material. Small variations in tone and density are part of the handmade nature — no two pieces are identical.
The raw material comes from fast-renewing plants, so your choice supports a more sustainable lifestyle compared to synthetic or plastic-based placemats.
Use and care
Place it under plates, use it as a decorative base for a vase, a candle or a fruit bowl, or lay it out for a dinner party. Several pieces together create a coherent table; you can also mix and match colours and textures freely. To clean, wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth — avoid soaking or hot washing as natural fibres may shrink. Store away from direct sunlight to preserve the colour over time.
