Koloman Moser Placemat Set
The Koloman Placemat Set, inspired by the intricate geometric patterns of Koloman Moser, a leading figure of the Vienna Secession movement, adds a touch of timeless European artistry to your dining table. Its vibrant yellow and black designs, hand-pressed onto an almond-white base, echo the movement's signature blend of boldness and elegance.
Four artisans meticulously crafted each placemat: wood carvers, block printers, Kantha stitchers, and dye specialists. Using hand-carved wooden blocks dipped in rich, natural dyes, the designs are carefully stamped onto 100% cotton fabric. The printed canvas is then enhanced with a hand-stitched Kantha border, making each piece a masterpiece of craftsmanship.
Lovingly created in small batches, these placemats celebrate individuality with slight variations highlighting their handmade nature. This collection is more than tableware—it's a celebration of artistic heritage and an invitation to bring refined cultural elegance to every meal.

Printed by Hand, Not by Machine
Each quilt begins with hand-carved wooden blocks, shaped by skilled artisans in Jaipur, India. The designs are pressed onto cotton by hand, one layer of color at a time, using traditional dyes and centuries-old techniques. Slight variations are not flaws, but signatures—evidence of the human hand behind every piece. This is slow, deliberate craft, preserved through generations.
