Banana fiber. Woven with purpose. Designed for your table. Give your meals a touch of story and soul with our FRINGED BISCOTTI placemats. What begins as discarded banana stems — left behind after the fruit is harvested — is transformed by artisans into strong, hand-twisted fiber ropes. Blended with cotton and other natural fibers, these ropes are woven on traditional looms into textured placemats that are rustic, resilient, and beautifully unique. Each piece is finished with soft fringed edges, adding a casual charm that works as well for everyday dining as it does for festive gatherings. Handwoven in Southern India, these placemats carry generations of craftsmanship, while supporting Fair Trade livelihoods and sustainable living. Simple, functional, and full of meaning — the kind of design that feels good to use and even better to gift. FEATURES • Size: 14"x19" (approx.) – Standard size for most dining settings • Materials: Banana stem fiber & cotton blend – renewable, biodegradable, and durable • Upcycled & Eco-Conscious: Crafted from repurposed banana plant stems • Handwoven on Traditional Looms: Artisan made in Southern India • Fair Trade Certified: Ensuring dignified, skill-based rural livelihoods • Designed in the U.S.: Contemporary aesthetic rooted in tradition • Care: Wipe with a damp cloth; spot clean with mild soap; dry flat in shade • Versatile Use: Ideal for casual meals, festive dining, or thoughtful gifting — perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas, Diwali, Easter, weddings, housewarmings, and hostess gifts. Disclaimer: Due to the handmade nature and use of natural fibers, slight variations in texture, color, or size may occur. These unique details are part of the story — a testament to the hand that wove each piece.
