Sardines Embroidered Linen Placemats (Set of 4)

La Gallina Matta understands the importance of practicality and elegance, so combines the two to create this set of Sardines placemats. Each one is crafted in Italy from linen that’s been carefully treated to ensure it can be wiped clean – the perfect detail for those with a soft spot for al fresco dining – while still retaining the texture and drape of the natural fabric. Look to the bottom corner for a finishing touch of multicoloured sardine embroidery.

Claudia Petruzzi Granato is the face behind La Gallina Matta, a Rome-based maker who encourages a cosy way of living through embroidered table linen. Her process leaves no stone uncovered, from the initial research (often of ancient arts) to the design itself, carefully selecting characteristics that will harmonise with a modern tablescape. Keep an eye out for small-but-significant details that she’s added to make her creations a joy to own, like the wipe-clean element of her coated placemats – perfect for outdoor dinner parties – and the hand-finished tweaks added by skilled seamstresses using a humble needle and scissors.
