Crafted by
Tribal Textiles artisans.
Designed using our unique
hand-painted technique, this table mats set is from our Kuba collection, inspired by the embroidered raffia textiles that were the very first artifacts that came from Africa, originally made in Kuba kingdom (in what is now known as Democratic Republic of Congo).
Using the trademark crackle effect that is Tribal Textiles' signature (from the starch resist technique), these place mats are decorated with geometric linear patterns that will beautifully enhance any table setting.
While the design and technique are the same, each artisan has his own way of starching and balancing colours, making each piece unique in its own special way.
