30cm Jute Placemat With Hamsa Print

A round jute placemat brings warmth to the table before the first dish is set down. The natural fibre has a dry, earthy texture, while the dark hamsa print gives each place setting a quiet focal point for everyday meals, slow breakfasts and relaxed dinners.

What it brings to the table

• The braided-looking surface adds natural texture beneath plates, bowls and serving pieces.
• The black printed motif sits at the centre, giving a simple table a more collected, bohemian feel.
• The warm jute tone works easily with plain ceramics, wooden boards, linen napkins and candlelight.
• It frames a place setting without feeling formal, suited to daily meals as much as guests.
• The natural fibre gives the table a grounded, tactile quality that disposable settings never quite have.

Jute, cotton and a printed centre

Made in India from jute and cotton, this placemat has the honest texture of natural fibre with a dark decorative print on top. The surface shows a woven, braided-looking pattern, with small variations in tone that are part of its rustic character.

Keeping the natural fibre at its best

Use it as a placemat rather than a trivet, as no heat-resistance rating is provided. Shake off crumbs after meals and spot clean gently when needed. Jute prefers to stay dry, so avoid soaking and let any damp area air dry fully before storing.

The hand motif in context

The hamsa is a hand-shaped symbol found across Middle Eastern, North African, Jewish and Islamic visual traditions. It is commonly associated with blessing, guardianship and good fortune, and often appears on jewellery, textiles and home objects. Here, the motif brings that symbolic language into the dining space in a simple, graphic way: a small visual pause at the centre of the table, rooted in tradition without feeling ornate.

Common questions

Can I use it under very hot pans?
No heat-resistance rating is supplied, so it is best used under plates, bowls and serving dishes rather than as a trivet for hot cookware.

Will the natural fibre look completely uniform?
No. Jute has natural tonal variation, which is part of its rustic table-linen character.
