Hand-Embroidered Patchwork Placemat, PVC-Laminated, (12x18)

Real dinner tables don't get treated gently. This placemat is built for the mess first, the aesthetic second — and it still wins on both counts.

The print reads like hand-embroidered kantha patchwork — a grid of individually "stitched" motif blocks in jewel-tone red, indigo, mustard, and emerald, each carrying its own floral or geometric pattern, bordered in a woven cream binding that frames the piece like textile, not plastic. It's a maximalist print engineered to hide the small stains a plain placemat shows off by week two.

Why PVC, Not Fabric

Cloth placemats absorb oil and turmeric stains permanently within a month of regular use. PVC doesn't. This is a durability decision dressed as a design decision — the patchwork print exists so the practical material doesn't look like a hospital tray liner.

• Set of 2: Couples, small daily-use tables
• Set of 4: Standard 4-seater dining tables
• Set of 6: 6-seater tables, or households that rotate settings between wash cycles

Care

Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Do not machine wash. Keep away from direct heat and sharp edges to protect the printed surface.
