Bring understated elegance and sustainable craftsmanship to your dining table with the Set of 4 Square Herringbone Water Hyacinth Placemats Handwoven by eQueen Handicrafts. Carefully handwoven by skilled Vietnamese artisans, each placemat reflects generations of weaving expertise and a commitment to environmentally responsible living.

Designed to suit both classic British interiors and modern homes, these placemats create a warm, welcoming setting for everyday meals, Sunday roasts and seasonal gatherings alike.

Crafted by Skilled Artisan Hands

Each placemat is individually woven using a refined herringbone technique, requiring precision, patience and deep material knowledge. This structured weave improves durability while creating a distinctive surface pattern that elevates the natural beauty of water hyacinth fiber.

At eQueen Handicrafts, production is never rushed or mechanised. Instead, experienced village artisans shape each piece by hand, ensuring consistent quality and authentic character in every set.

A Regenerative Material from the Mekong Delta

Water hyacinth is a fast-growing river plant that helps restore waterways by absorbing excess nutrients and carbon. By transforming this fibre into durable homeware, eQueen supports a circular craft economy that benefits ecosystems and rural communities simultaneously.

Choosing this placemat set helps:

• support traditional weaving livelihoods
