Meet the Maker
Uashmama

Shape is everything
The perfect shape to set out your stuff on. For times when you need more than a circle and less than a big rectangle, these ovals are our most used. Love the materials.
Just right
Love the texture, color, cleanablity of these placemats. Quite stylish and modern without being a distraction from the table.
So pretty!
The placemats are pretty, practical and work well by preventing moisture from touching the Walnut table surface. The design is understated and elegant.
