Why You’ll Love It

The Maison & White natural slate material provides effective thermal insulation between a hot plate or dish and the table surface, protecting lacquered, varnished and painted dining table finishes from heat marks that develop when hot cookware is placed directly on the surface without a barrier — Heat marks on dining tables occur when the temperature of a hot plate or dish transfers through a thin or poorly insulating barrier into the finish layer of the table surface, causing the lacquer or varnish to soften, bubble or discolour permanently in the shape of the object placed on it — the density and low thermal conductivity of natural slate slows the rate of heat transfer from the plate through the placemat to the table surface beneath, providing sufficient insulation to protect standard dining table finishes from heat damage during normal use with hot plates and dishes from the oven or hob.
The Maison & White anti-slip feet on each placemat and coaster prevent the slate from sliding across the table when a plate is placed on it or a cup is lifted from it, keeping each piece in its set position throughout the meal without the slate migrating across the table surface and disrupting the place settings — Smooth-bottomed slate placemats and coasters placed on polished or lacquered table surfaces have minimal friction between the two smooth materials, allowing the slate to slide easily when a heavy plate is placed on top and pushes the placemat slightly sideways, or when a cup is lifted and the suction or drag of the coaster causes it to shift position — the rubber anti-slip feet on each piece of this Maison & White set grip the table surface independently of the friction between the slate and the table, keeping each placemat and coaster in position when plates are placed on or lifted from them during normal table service.
The Maison & White matched set of 4 placemats and 4 coasters provides a complete coordinated place setting for up to 4 guests from a single purchase, with each guest having a dedicated placemat for their plate and a dedicated coaster for their drink in the same natural slate material and finish — Purchasing placemats and coasters separately from different product lines to assemble a matching set for 4 requires finding two products in the same material and finish that are sold in sufficient quantities, verifying that the slate tone and finish match across both products before purchase and combining two separate orders to achieve the required quantity — this Maison & White set provides both the placemats and coasters for 4 place settings in the same natural slate material from the same production batch, ensuring a consistent tone and finish across all 8 pieces without requiring any separate sourcing or order combining.
