Too many brands have sacrificed quality for home items (bed sheets, towels, and even tablecloths). You spend so much time in your home, it makes sense to only dress your home in high quality, long-lasting products. We've been producing in Ireland for 170+ years and will continue to only increase the quality.

A big reason the placemat was created was to absorb the heat of warm/hot plates. It prevented the table and tablecloth from getting damaged. Linen placemats are woven in a way that allows air to flow effortlessly, creating a cooling environment for the plate.
