Product Insights
The Summer Stripes Placemat by Simons Maison, a discontinued seasonal design priced at $2.99 (original $7.50), is an uncoated organic cotton weft that wicks spills quickly and releases set stains fully, though it requires specific stain treatments for oil, wine, coffee, and tea. Its woven stripes withstand repeated machine washing but the pale summer palette appears paler in person and is best paired with light dinnerware. The placemat wrinkles after washing and needs ironing, lacks heat resistance (requires a trivet) and a non-slip backing (slides on smooth surfaces), making it a tradeoff between absorbent, fade-proof fabric and limitations in heat, stability, and maintenance.

Summer patio and poolside meals
Reviewers reportedly use or consider this placemat for summer patio or poolside meals. Its bright stripes are said to bring a breezy, seasonal energy to outdoor tables.[1]
Everyday family meals with spills
Reportedly used for family dinners where spills are frequent — the machine-washable organic cotton makes post-meal cleanup simple, per a summary of customer reviews. Keep in mind the pure cotton wrinkles after washing and some reviewers found the required ironing a drawback.[1]
Setting a summer tablescape
Reviewers find this striped placemat visually appealing for summer table settings. Keep in mind the stripe colors can look lighter in person than in online photos, and the pale stripes may appear washed out alongside dark or bold dinnerware — one buyer exchanged theirs for a different shade for this reason.[1]
A housewarming or bridal shower gift
Reportedly given as a housewarming or bridal shower present, this striped placemat has been described by reviewers as a stylish and practical gift that recipients love.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Summer Stripes Placemat: Choose this if you want a machine-washable, 100% organic cotton placemat with embroidered multicolor stripe details and a scalloped edge on a cream woven base, sized 13 by 19.75 inches (33 x 50 cm) for summer tablescapes, patio meals, or gifting. Reviewers describe it as good quality and practical for spill-prone family dinners, but note the pure cotton wrinkles after washing and needs ironing, and the stripe colors can appear lighter in person than in online photos, prompting some buyers to exchange for a different shade.[1,2,3] | Block-Stripe Placemat: Choose this if you want a chic rustic 100% organic cotton placemat with wide graphic stripes — reviewers say the heavy, tightly ribbed fabric lays flat without curling and its earthy tri-colors instantly elevate everyday and special-occasion tablescapes. It measures 13 by 20 inches (33 x 50 cm), comes in multiple colorways, and is billed as easy-care, machine wash and dry — though reviewers report significant shrinkage of an inch or more and severe wrinkling when machine washed and dried, with cold washing and line drying reported to preserve color and shape. Note also that several reviewers found the actual colors darker or shifted from online photos.[4,5] | Seasonal Gingham Placemat: Choose this if you want an easy-care woven placemat for everyday meals or seasonal tables: it is machine washable and dryable, made of 75% reprocessed cotton and 25% polyester, measures 13 by 19.75 inches (33 x 50 cm), and comes in Navy/Midnight Blue or Golden Yellow gingham with a ribbed texture and short fringe edges. Reviewers describe the yellow as vibrant and true to photo and report the fabric stays supple and the colors unfaded after machine washing. Note that a cut edge shows minor fraying, and in the yellow option the green stripe is subtle and may read as mostly yellow under some lighting.[6,7,8] |

Pur coton biologique
Je n'aime pas le pur coton biologique,doit repasser après lavage
washable, cotton.
this item was a gift for my daughter. She likes it a lot and particularly the placemats are machine washable.
Très jolis
Ils sont très beaux mais trop pâles pour ma table. Je les ai donc retournés et choisi une autre couleur.
Parfait pour l’été
Beaux et de belle qualité. Pratique et parfait pour amener une touche estivale au décor
