Sasa Voivoi Placemat Somo Rim
Sasa (coconut spine fiber) and voivoi (pandanus) leaf are both painstakingly harvested and woven by indigenous Fijian women to create this gorgeous table mat set. The somo rim is the product of hard work—this is a natural mud dye created through a slow process of burying voivoi underground for several weeks, then digging it up and boiling it with a variety of leaves. The resulting dye sets the black colour and creates a natural shine. Due to this traditional, hand-dying practice, colour variations are possible, adding a personal touch to your table mat. Approx. 36 cm in diameter.
