Coasters in Stone, Wood, Glass & Leather

Small pieces. Plenty of character.

The coaster is a small detail that gets used all day. Give it some character with veined marble, natural slate, olive wood, woven fibres or engraved leather. From a morning mug on the desk to a glass beside the sofa, these are pieces worth keeping within reach.

Notes from the Kitchen Table

Leave them where the drinks happen

A coaster tucked away in a drawer rarely earns its keep. Put a pair beside the sofa, keep one on the desk and leave a small stack near the glasses. Engraved leather adds a compact decorative detail, while marble, slate and olive wood bring their own pattern. If you are buying for a new home, pair a set with glassware for a present that can be used that evening.

Notes from the Kitchen Table

A match in material, not in everything

Coasters do not have to repeat the placemats exactly. A stone coaster beside a woven mat creates a small change of texture; clear glass can leave the table's own surface in view. Repeat one tone across the setting and let the details differ. Our placemats make a useful starting point, whether you prefer a simple round outline, a scalloped edge or the stronger geometry of slate.

The Byard’s choosing guide

Find a coaster you will keep reaching for

A coaster needs to suit both the drink and the furniture underneath it. Start with dimensions and backing, then choose between the pattern of natural materials, a clear glass surface or an engraved detail.

Which coaster material should I choose?

Choose by the look and care you prefer. Stone gives a weightier surface, wood shows individual grain, woven fibres add texture, and leather brings engraved detail. Check the base, finish and cleaning instructions on the specific product rather than assuming every material behaves in the same way.

Will every natural stone or wooden coaster look identical?

Natural marble, slate and wood can vary in veining, grain, tone and edge detail. The product photograph shows the style, but individual pieces may differ. That variation is useful when you want a set with a shared material and shape rather than an identical printed pattern.

How many coasters are included?

The range includes individual coasters and sets in different quantities. Check the product title, description and selected option together before ordering. If you are choosing for a dining table, count the extra water glasses as well as the main drinks, or keep a few spares nearby.
