Anyone who loves their home and likes to keep it looking its best would love to receive one (or more) of these – ‘magic’ Diatomite Coasters that suck up any little dribbles and spi lls, so even if cups of coffee get knocked and mugs of tea are a bit too full, you won’t end up with any tell-tale water marks or rings on the table. And thanks to the intricate snowflake design, they’ll look pretty while they’re being practical too. How it works The ‘magic’ ingredient is diatomite, a highly porous natural material that quickly absorbs any liquid that comes into contact with it. Once absorbed, it rapidly evaporates, so its surface stays dry to the touch rather than getting waterlogged, stopping any moisture from leaking out to mark your table. About diatomite A soft, highly porous rock, mostly made up from the tiny fossils of single-celled algae called diatoms, super-absorbent diatomite has also been used to filter water, beer and wine; as a very mild abrasive in toothpaste and metal polish; an anti-caking agent; a growing medium for potted plants (especially bonsai); in cat litter; and even in dynamite. With cork backing to prevent scratches. 10.5cm Dia. Show more
