A Porthault placemat and napkin in pure French flax, printed with drifting pink lilac and swirling ribbon stems. Over it all, dragonflies and butterflies in cornflower, navy, and a blush of pink, painted so loosely they look ready to lift off.
The edges are scalloped and bound in rose-pink, the way only Porthault does it. Pair it with a teacup and a slow morning.
