IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS BEFORE ORDERING we can't stress enough that our slate place mats are made from natural slate, not mainstream re-constituted slate. Slate is a metamorphic rock, 45 million years old, which contains various impurities such as fools gold metal impurities (black and gold interpolations created by the presence of iron) and fossil indentations. For these reasons, each set is entirely unique, and we kindly ask customers to understand that we are unable to control the colour consistency of the set they receive. In fact, we believe this would actually defy the point of the product, and its inherent natural beauty

Ordered these for my new kitchen. Lovely packaging - and they look fabulous on my new table. Only negative is that a couple of them are'nt quite level & 'wobble' a bit. A small price to pay for them thou!

I have the rectangular ones from Christmas and I like them for their general character, and the different shades of dark blue within the slate. Be careful not to drop them - they are heavy and I have a dent in my solid oak table from my clumsy husband
