Placemat in banana fiber and cotton threads

Don’t be fooled by the classic black-and-white appearance, the Platao’s charm lies in the subtlety of its nuanced hues:

• An off-white background, which creates a natural charm;

• A border of two lines of black cotton, one fine, the other generous;

• Within which, immaculate lines appear, light and regular, adding brightness to the design.

Made from banana fibre and patiently knotted cotton, each piece in this collection has been expertly handcrafted on looms in the Tamil Nadu region of southern India.

The finishing touch: a soft cotton fringing, which reveals the fineness of the cotton.
