Doris Placemat in Ochre

This placemat is woven from sturdy cotton into a thick. durable. double-sided design. It's part of Johanna Gullichsen's Normandie collection. which she conceives of as a modern interpretation of old Finnish weaving traditions. The patterns in the collection are all inspired by the era of luxury ocean liners and a slow. elegant way of traveling. This pattern is named after the Greek sea nymph Doris—subtly mimicking the undulation of the sea.
