Set of 8 Handwoven Margarita Iraca Placemats Multicoloured

HANDMADE IN COLOMBIA
£250.00

This set of 8 Iraca placemats have been handcrafted by our artisan partners in Colombia exclusively for Wicklewood. Woven following a traditional technique that has been passed down through generations, they add bohemian chic to any tablescape. The cheerful design features a floral edge combining natural iraca and eight different colourways making this set a lively addition to any meal.

These placemats are made in Colombia using an ancestral weaving technique. In pre-Hispanic America, palm fibres were woven in this style to make textiles, hats and baskets. Artisans that specialise in this style of weaving begin by shaping a wireframe, over which they weave intricate lace-like patterns with the Iraca palm. The exceptional handwork creates pieces that are beautiful, functional and hard-wearing.

Each placemat measures 36 cm diameter and is handmade in Colombia from Iraca palm.
