Woven entirely by hand on traditional wooden looms, Xiabu is a heritage textile from China crafted with natural ramie fibers. Known for its lightness, breathability, and subtle luster, Xiabu has been treasured for centuries as the ideal summer cloth. Each piece carries the irregular rhythm of handweaving, giving it a unique texture that machines cannot replicate. Durable yet delicate, cool against the skin, Xiabu embodies the quiet elegance of traditional craftsmanship adapted for contemporary living.

This placemat is handcrafted from traditional Chinese Xiabu (ramie summer cloth), exclusively designed for Studio Saum. Functional as a tabletop accent or a heat-resistant placemat for dining, it blends cultural symbolism with everyday practicality.

Designed with double-sided stitching, offering two colors for versatile use.
