Small Rope Mat
By Gary Thorne
£21.50
These rope mat designs are based on a traditional sailor’s thumper, which would protect the cabin wall from the door slamming in a gust of wind.
Useful as a trivet, table mat or decorative weaving to hang up.
Woven using manilla hemp rope from Chatham Dockyard, and oiled to give extra protection and strength. Made in Kent.
Measures 19cm in diameter.
