Preserve the beauty of your table while delivering a layer of style when you shop for cork placemats at Williams Sonoma. Thoughtful designs and durable materials combine to create durable cork backed placemats you'll showcase for many years to come.

Selecting Cork Backed Placemats

The cork backing showcased on these placemats provides a soft finish that will shield your table from the heat of a hot plate or the moisture of a drinking glass without causing any scratches to the surface. With so many different design options available, discovering the best one for your dining room is all about looking at the key features of the design, such as:

• Design Style: As you start to browse all the possible options, make sure to check out the overall design style of each one. Check out the pattern and color scheme, making sure it's a design that coordinates with the overall look of your dining room or that coordinates with the theme of your special event.
• Shape: As a few different designs start to catch your eye, check out the shape of each one. Round and square placemats are a space-saving option that's ideal for round tables. Larger rectangular mats are a better choice for long dining tables.
• Quantity: Think about how many people you'll be serving at the meal and the total capacity of the table. Stock up on enough placemats to feature at each place setting.
