Elvis & Kresse

Regular price £20 Sale

Creatively handcrafted in Kent by the Elvis & Kresse team.

This luxury placemat is hand-stitched from genuine decommissioned British firehose sourced from firehouses across the UK. Firehose is decommissioned either after damage or 25 years of service and cannot be recycled. Elvis & Kresse have been rescuing decommissioned firehoses from landfill for over a decade, turning them into zero waste luxury homeware accessories. The placemat is backed with black printing blanket that has also been rescued from landfill. Available in red and yellow, these placemats are vegan and zero waste. View the matching coaster here.

Presented in a reclaimed military-grade parachute silk dust bag that can be reused as a delicate-wash bag.
