We are passionate about designing textiles and transforming them into beautiful, durable, and easy-to-clean products. At home in both residential and commercial spaces around the world, Chilewich products are designed at our New York City studio. Our design team includes master weavers who develop and refine innovative patterns and multi-tonal colors for collections that are renewed seasonally. Our desire for artistic expression is balanced by our commitment to reaching a broad audience and to creating products that retain their beauty and functionality over many years of daily use. Containing a minimum of 18% renewable vegetable content, our woven textiles are made entirely in the United States. The Chilewich factory in Chatsworth, Georgia, produces approximately 40,000 placemats a week. This 127,500-square-foot space is also where various backings are bonded to our textiles to create products for a range of applications.
