These handcrafted coasters made of banana fibers help you soften your surroundings and add a more natural look and texture to your home. Use it in any room or as a table setting accessory for everyday use. Available in a palette of modern, natural tones that works well with a range of interior design styles.
Products are handmade and each piece is unique therefore any slight imperfection is an individual expression of that artisan’s “perfect” handy work
Color - Natural. Slight variation in the color of the fiber is to be expected.
Size - 3.5" with edging
Gently hand wash with a soft brush or sponge. While still damp, shape the product back to its original form. Air dry.
Our banana fiber products literally come from nature. Handmade by local women in South India to provide better income opportunities, while also respecting the natural ecology of the region. The fiber used for crocheting this product is locally available and it's made out of the "dead" leaves of the banana trees. These leaves, previously considered as waste, are now getting a new life in the form of contemporary and sustainable design innovation.
The banana leaves are spliced by hand to extract fiber strips followed by twining to make different thickness ropes which are then hand crochet and woven to make these eco-friendly coasters.
These are really nice coasters. They make everything that I put on them more pleasant to look at.
These coasters are the perfect aesthetic for my home. I love the natural look and supporting artisan women in India. Thanks TerraKlay!
Thank You Joanna.
