Mourne Check Slate Placemats Set of 4

Originally introduced in 1951 and designed by Norwegian textile designer Gerd Hay-Edie, this set of four placemats shares a story about timeless design and craft. Hay-Edie has made a lasting impact throughout a career that spanned much of the 20th century. Her legacy on the world of woven textiles is now being carried on by her family through Mourne Textiles, who continue to produce her original designs. Mourne Textiles still use traditional hand-loom techniques in the foothills of the Mourne Mountains in Northern Ireland. The pattern of these placemats is as appreciated today as it was decades ago. Dark and distinguished, the Check Slate Placemats feature gray and black woven threads.
