Villiyrtit tablecloth/throw, 150 x 200 cm, linen - bordeaux

The Villiyrtit table cloth, designed by Matti Pikkujämsä for Lapuan Kankurit, is adorned with a rich, flowing pattern showcasing the delicacies of Finnish nature – "villiyrtit" is Finnish for wild herbs. The pattern is mirrored on the other side in opposite colours. The multifunctional linen cloth completes the look of table settings as a beautiful tablecloth but also works as a thin blanket in the summer heat, a curtain at the window or a picnic mat in the park. The table cloth has been woven in Finland at the own weaving mill of Lapuan Kankurit.
