Round banana leaf placemat with raffia fringe 45 cm

Key measurements for finding the right location:

• Diameter: 45 cm
• Weight: 0.10 kg

All you need to know about the material:

• Dried banana leaf rolled into a cord, then coiled into a spiral
• Caramel and brown marbling on the same cord
• Naturally lustrous surface, shinier than seagrass or raffia
• Fringe made of raw raffia
• Diameter 45 cm, 0.10 kg, only one available
• Sold individually, not a placemat

This warm-toned set works well with stoneware, terracotta and dark wood, and conversely clashes with very white crockery, which makes it look dirty rather than nuanced. It is a set to be matched, not a neutral set.

What you need to know to install and maintain it:

• Dust with a dry cloth only; a damp cloth will permanently dull the luster.
• Leave a stubborn stain rather than damaging the luster.
• Store strictly flat; dry leaf is brittle and does not like to be folded.
• Never place a dish straight from the oven on it.
