A riot of colour and pattern for the table, this full set of 8 vintage 1990s cork-backed placemats by Jacqueline Mair for Roger la Borde captures the playful energy of the era.

Produced in 1997, these placemats showcase Jacqueline Mair’s bold painterly illustrations, licensed by Roger la Borde. Each mat bursts with colour: strawberries, aubergines, daisies, sunflowers, and graphic blue-and-yellow tableware on vibrant backgrounds.

The designs are witty and eclectic, with a postmodern kitchen-art feel that makes them as joyful now as when they were first launched. More than tableware, they’re collectible design pieces that nod to the exuberant 1990s aesthetic.
