Craftsmanship Origin

Utilizing digital printing to replicate the nuanced ink wash effects of traditional Chinese painting, this technique reproduces the hazy, soft texture of ink on high-density waterproof fabric. The fabric surface is professionally treated for water repellency, balancing traditional aesthetic qualities with modern practical needs. This breaks the limitation of traditional tea placemats being "beautiful to look at, difficult to maintain," creating Chinese-style tea ceremony utensils that are enjoyable, usable, and easy to care for in daily tea rituals.

Pattern Symbolism

The tea placemats share a unified theme of "Blue Rhyme, Floral Shadows," featuring a double-sided gradient design from the same series. The overall design uses a dark blue base, with ink-wash elements of white peonies, flying swallows, and warm orange autumn leaves. Subtle oriental patterns are faintly visible, creating a hazy and elegant ink wash aesthetic.

• Peonies symbolize wealth and tranquility, while flying swallows represent the vitality of spring. The interplay of flowers and leaves embodies the beautiful wishes of "full bloom and reunion, peace and harmony year after year."

• The patterns on both sides have different focal points but complement each other. One side emphasizes the lively spirit of flowers and perching swallows, while the other leans towards the serene quietude of lotus shadows. This allows for free switching based on the tea ceremony setting and mood, offering "two scenes in one item" to suit various tea ceremony styles.

Dimensions and Material

• Material: High-density waterproof fabric with a water-repellent surface. Tea stains and water marks can be wiped clean immediately, preventing seepage and mildew. It has a soft, firm touch with good drape, and resists wrinkles and deformation even after repeated use.

• Craftsmanship Details: The edges feature a rounded overlock process to prevent scratching tabletops. The stitching is neat and delicate, ensuring both durability and refinement.

• Dimensions: 45×20cm, suitable for most standard tea table layouts. It can be flexibly arranged to create an elegant small landscape for your tea ceremony.

Each tea ceremony, each placemat, creates a unique scene and atmosphere. This 45×20cm double-sided waterproof tea placemat from the same series uses oriental ink wash as its brush and practical fabric as its paper, encapsulating the beauty of nature and tea aesthetics within its small confines. It adds a touch of elegance and serenity to daily tea rituals, making it an exquisite and practical choice for any tea ceremony.
