Artists. Authors. Revolutionaries. Reminders. Frida Kahlo, Jane Austen, Salvador Dali and William Shakespeare keep you company for conversation through this set of four cork coasters by Kavi The Poetry-Art Project.

1. Cork is one of the most eco friendly, sustainable materials in the world.The outer bark of a cork oak tree can be stripped every 9-14 years without harming the tree. Since the harvesting involves no logging, a diverse, ancient woodland ecosystem based on native flora has developed. In buying and using cork products you are contributing to preserve a natural, renewable and important ecological environment.

2.Coasters are a must to protect your surfaces from damage from drips, dents, and hot mugs. These cork coasters will protect your surfaces and the natural cork compliments the modern, clean look of today.

3. Since all the pieces are hand created, there may be a slight variation in shape and color but each piece will have the same effect.

4. Do not use water on the surface for cleaning. Simply take a moist cloth and rub the surface gently.
