Product Insights
A limited-run, exclusive Simons Maison design, this handcrafted 80% glass-bead and 20%-cotton placemat delivers boutiquelike artistry at half the cost, but its 13.75-inch diameter dictates a plate-centric table setting (displacing flatware and stemware) and demands careful storage—flat or rolled bead-side-out with a silica gel packet—to prevent bead cracking, making it a collectible decorative accent rather than a workhorse protector.

- Care

Why this is supported
The placemat requires gentle care:
For longevity, avoid soaking or vigorous scrubbing
Are the glass beads securely attached, or is there a risk of them detaching with regular use?. For storage,
Glass beads can crack under sustained weight, so storing the placemat — flat or rolled — on a top shelf or inside a rigid box prevents heavier items from being stacked on it
How to store beaded textiles long-term — top_shelf_weight_protection. Additionally,
the cotton base absorbs ambient humidity, which can swell fibers and fatigue the threads holding each glass bead
How to store beaded textiles long-term — silica_gel_desiccant, so storing with a desiccant and an acid-free tissue barrier is recommended when rolling to prevent friction damage.
- Setting layout
Cannot hold flatware or glass; cutlery and stemware are displaced to the table.
Why this is supported
The placemat
does not extend far enough to hold flatware or a glass on its surface, which pushes cutlery and stemware onto the tabletop and creates a curated, plate-forward presentation

rolling the placemat bead-side-out around an archival tube at least 2 inches in diameter distributes pressure evenly
How to store beaded textiles long-term — rolling_over_folding, avoiding the stress creases of folding.
- Humidity control
Add a silica gel packet to stabilize humidity and protect threads.
Why this is supported
including a silica gel packet in the storage enclosure stabilizes the micro-environment and guards against mildew and thread breakdown
How to store beaded textiles long-term — silica_gel_desiccantbecause the cotton base absorbs humidity that can fatigue bead-attaching threads.
- Friction barrier
Place unbuffered acid-free tissue over beads before rolling to reduce friction.
Why this is supported
A sheet of unbuffered acid-free tissue placed over the beaded surface before rolling minimizes bead-on-fabric friction that can abrade the cotton threads
How to store beaded textiles long-term — acid_free_tissue_barrier, significantly slowing wear that leads to detachments over repeated seasonal cycles.
- Weight protection
Store on a top shelf or in a rigid box to prevent cracking.
Why this is supported
