Handwoven with natural seagrass via a laborious and time-intensive process, these pieces require expertise, a trained eye, and unparalleled craftsmanship. From seed to stitch, this ecologically conscious placemat is made with environmental stewardship in mind. We care about you, the makers, and the planet. From our meticulously monitored work environments for artisans to environmentally-responsible processes and materials, we’re working to give your family the gift of carefully and responsibly made heirlooms.

By working directly with our women-led cooperatives and like-minded grassroots organizations, we cut out the cost of working through a middleman. Our prices reflect the quality and craftsmanship required to create luxury products, while directly benefiting the communities creating them.

Women are monumentally impacted by systemic poverty. Consider (just a few of) the facts: only ⅓ can read or write, over one million per year are captured by human trafficking, and in low- and middle-income countries, giving birth after a forced child marriage is a leading cause of death. That’s why every purchase empowers women to overcome socio-economic barriers and live safer, healthier lives by developing their skills through vocational training and helping to develop the resources for a sustainable future.

On top of creating with ethics in mind, we love to give back to the world. Every purchase educates a girl in Sub-saharan Africa, an area where millions don’t have the opportunity of an education. Additionally, we believe that to maintain a successfully sustainable environment, we must act in harmony with nature. So, to protect our future, we plant a tree for every piece you buy.

Our placemats are easy to keep clean using a damp towel or microfiber cloth and durable enough to last a long time, even when used regularly.
