Placemats do two jobs at once, and a metallic finish adds a third. They protect the table from heat, spills and marks; they define each place setting so a table looks laid rather than just occupied; and in gold, silver or blue they catch light and lift an everyday meal towards an occasion. The round shape frames a dinner plate neatly and softens a rectangular table. A set of six dresses a standard dining table in one purchase, which matters β mats bought in fours and topped up later rarely match, and mismatched settings are more noticeable than mismatched plates.

Buying guide
Allow around 60cm of table edge per setting so mats do not touch, and measure your table width before buying six. Metallic finishes show fingerprints and water spots more than matt ones, so wipe with a soft dry cloth after cleaning rather than leaving them to air dry. Use a trivet under anything straight off the heat, regardless of a mat's heat resistance. Store flat or loosely stacked; a crease in a coated mat is permanent. Gold and silver suit warm and cool crockery respectively, while blue works as an accent on a plain white table.
How it compares
Against woven mats, metallic finishes wipe clean and tolerate spills better. Against a tablecloth, mats create no laundry and leave the table surface on show. For a family table with small children, a matt wipe-clean mat hides marks better than a metallic one.
