Japanese Sashiko Hand-Embroidered Reversible Placemat - Floral Navy

This page features the Navy Reversible Sashiko Placemat. We created this piece using a Sashiko floral pattern called "Kawari Hanamon," assembling the fabric sections in a patchwork style. Sashiko is a traditional Japanese hand-embroidery technique. By combining a navy base with ecru and pale gray fabrics, we have achieved an elegant and sophisticated look. The floral pattern features beautiful, soft curves, allowing you to appreciate the delicate intricacy of Sashiko. The reverse side features a light blue gingham check pattern, making it reversible to suit your mood. The design complements Nordic-style tableware and furniture beautifully. Thanks to its calm tones and traditional embroidery, it also fits perfectly in a traditional Japanese-style room (Washitsu). Beyond its use as a placemat or snack mat, it can be used on shelves under vases or ornaments—its uses are versatile. 《Fabric Quality》 We use high-quality CVC Dungaree cotton-poly fabric from "Maruishi," a renowned Japanese textile manufacturer. This fabric is wrinkle-resistant, durable, and quick-drying, making it ideal for kitchen and dining textiles. It is easy to care for, ensuring stress-free daily use. The material itself is substantial, but we have added interfacing to both the front and back. This makes it firm to the touch and ensures the embroidery threads remain secure and do not fray easily. 《Care Instructions》 Hand washing is recommended for spot stains, but it is also fully machine washable. *Please ensure you place the item in a laundry net to prevent fraying or snagging. While the material is wrinkle-resistant, a quick iron after washing will give it a crisp, beautiful finish. ✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎ Fabric: Maruishi CVC Dungaree Cotton-Poly Front: #119 Navy, #111 Ecru, #128 Pale Gray Back: Light Blue Gingham Check Thread: Navy embroidery thread Interfacing: Medium weight Size: Approx. 40cm × 28.5cm Pattern: Kawari Hanamon (Variant Floral) ✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎✳︎ As this is a handmade item, stitch spacing may vary from piece to piece.
