Handcrafted from natural fibre, our Buriti fibre placemats are delicate, timeless and steeped in traditional craftsmanship.
Created from the natural fibre of the Buriti tree, our Buriti placemats are more than just exquisite table accessories. They embody a rich cultural heritage deeply rooted in Brazil, where the Buriti tree is affectionately known as the "tree of life" by Indigenous and traditional communities. This revered tree, standing tall at 20 to 30 meters, offers sustenance and protection through its leaves, stalks, fruits, and seeds, providing livelihoods and sustenance to many.
Our Buriti placemats not only grace your table with their delicate beauty but also carry within them the timeless traditions and wisdom of Brazil's native artisans. Each piece is a tribute to the sustainable and artistic brilliance of a culture that thrives in harmony with the land.
Please note that slight variations in color and design may occur due to the handmade nature of this product.
