Easy, Everyday Dining with Handwoven Tablemats
Jute placemats protect your table from heat marks, scratches, and the usual spillages that come at mealtimes. Ever put a hot plate straight on the table and regretted it later? These take care of that problem, so you can just sit, eat and enjoy a conversation with your family and guests.
You don’t need to keep them tucked away until you have guests around to celebrate a special occasion, they’re made for normal, everyday eating. Breakfast in a rush, kids’ dinner, or a quick cuppa in the evening, they just sit there and do their job. And if something does spill, you’re not stuck scrubbing the table, you can just wipe or shake them off and carry on with your day.
When you’re not using them, you can just stack them and put them away or leave a couple out on the table. They don’t look messy, so there’s no pressure to hide them.
They also solve a simple problem: most tables just look a bit dull on their own. Wood, glass, and painted surfaces can all benefit from a bit of texture and colour. Do you want your dining area to feel a bit warmer without changing your furniture? This is an easy way to do that.

FAQs: Jute Placemats
Q: Are your placemats heat resistant?
A: Yes, they can handle everyday hot plates and dishes, which makes them practical for regular mealtimes. Just avoid placing extremely hot pans directly from the hob.
Q: Are they suitable for outdoor dining?
A: They can be used outdoors for casual dining, like garden meals or BBQs, but it’s best to bring them inside afterwards to protect them from damp or weather exposure.
Q: Can they affect the balance of plates or glasses on the table?
A: No, they’re thin and stable enough that plates and glasses sit normally. They don’t create wobble or uneven surfaces on a standard dining table.
Q: Do they need any treatment before first use?
A: No treatment is needed. Most people simply give them a quick shake or wipe before placing them on the table for the first time.
Q: Can they be rolled or folded for storage?
A: They’re fairly flexible, so they can be gently stacked or stored flat in the basket we provide with them, but it’s best not to roll them tightly as that can affect their shape over time.
