This is not an attached fringe: each shell is pierced and sewn with white thread into the thickness of the weaving, which accounts for the piece's 400 grams, double that of a bare rattan placemat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStyle and Decoration\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe contrast between the dark brown of the rattan and the shiny cream of the cowrie shells is what makes the piece: it is the only placemat in the range that draws a clear, sharp circle around the plate. On a dark wooden table, it highlights the place setting without adding extra color.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDaily Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cowrie shells extend a few millimeters beyond the table surface, which gives the placemat a good grip but prevents it from stacking perfectly flat with other models. Store it separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCowrie is a calcareous shell: vinegar, lemon juice, and acidic detergents will dull it in seconds, and it will permanently lose its shine. This is a real risk on a table where food is seasoned. Wipe up any vinaigrette splashes immediately, dry, and never use household cleaners on this border.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bazar Bizar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54467581870407,"sku":"BAGE005NBr","price":21.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/8000\/8263\/files\/set-table-rond-colonial-rotin-brun-cauris-40.jpg?v=1785400672","url":"https:\/\/www.fenalor.com\/en\/products\/colonial-round-placemat-in-brown-rattan-bordered-with-cowrie-shells-40-cm","provider":"Fenalor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
