Rio Multicolor Floral Linen Placemat
$23.24
The Rio linen placemat brings together large flowers, leaves, and botanical forms painted in blue, fuchsia, coral, yellow, and green across a natural linen ground. The pure linen fabric by Tessitura Toscana Telerie is cut and tailored by La Bottega di Casa in its workshop in Follina, Italy.

A linen placemat that approaches color with freedom
Rio turns every place setting into a small textile composition. Large painterly flowers, leaves, and graphic details overlap across the natural linen ground, creating a pattern that is exuberant yet carefully balanced.
The richness of the design meets the quality of the fabric and the care of Italian tailoring. The result is a refined placemat with an unconventional spirit, bringing color to the table without losing the material beauty and careful finishing that distinguish La Bottega di Casa linens.
Rio can be used every day directly on wood or stone, leaving much of the tabletop visible. It can also be layered over a solid-color tablecloth for a richer and more personal setting. Although it feels naturally at home on a bright summer table, its natural ground and varied palette make it equally suitable for kitchens and dining rooms throughout the year.
Every Rio placemat is unique
The Rio fabric features a continuous pattern. The position of the flowers, leaves, and individual colors therefore depends on where each piece is cut.
Several placemats used together remain clearly coordinated, but each one reveals its own composition. This variation is not a flaw: it makes every piece unique and gives the table a more spontaneous rhythm.
Small irregularities in the weave or slight variations in thread thickness are also normal characteristics of pure linen and part of its authentic beauty.
The standard size is 40 × 50 cm / 16 × 19 in, providing space for a dinner plate, flatware, and a glass without covering the entire table.
The Rio placemat can also be custom-made. Send us the dimensions you need, and we will recommend an appropriate proportion and confirm feasibility and price.
White or ivory plates allow the pattern to remain the focus, while handcrafted ceramics and clear or green glassware emphasize its individual character.
Pair the placemat with the matching Rio napkin or with solid-color linen napkins. Raspberry, green, lobster coral, and mauve pick up shades found within the design. Mixing different napkin colors around the table creates an expressive but harmonious result.
Over a natural, white, or ivory linen tablecloth, Rio becomes an island of color. A blue, green, raspberry, or mauve base creates a bolder and more unconventional combination.
The placemat coordinates with the Rio linen tablecloth, Rio linen table runner, and Rio linen napkin.
The pieces in the Rio collection are also available in custom sizes, allowing their proportions to be adapted to a particular table. Use the matching pieces together or combine the print freely with solid-color tablecloths and napkins.
Machine wash at 104°F with a mild detergent. Do not bleach, and preferably avoid tumble drying. Iron on high while the linen is still slightly damp.
Treat spills promptly with water and mild soap. This placemat is made from natural linen and does not have a coated or stain-resistant finish.
La Bottega di Casa grew from an Italian tradition centered on natural fabrics and finely tailored household linens. In our Follina workshop in the Prosecco Hills, we select Italian textiles and make tablecloths, runners, placemats, and napkins with careful attention to cut, proportion, and finishing.
From our store in San Miguel de Allende and through our online service, we personally help clients choose the sizes, colors, and coordinating pieces best suited to their homes.
