The Quil Placemat from Chilewich serves as an elegant backdrop for your dishes, serving them up with a retro-contemporary feel. It guides the eyes from left to right and back again in an intricate zig-zag design. Its terra strand yarn composition brings to light the time-honored flame-stitch needlework technique. Slivers of multi-colored yarn are sequenced perfectly to show a gradual shift in color. Its elegant surface cleans up with a simple soapy rub.
