I purchased this item at a cotton specialty goods store in Bangkok and have kept it unused. I believe the material is cotton since I bought it at a cotton specialty shop, but there are no tags. I think it can be used as a table mat or a rug. Size: Approximately 40 x 47 Please understand that I cannot capture the exact same color as the actual item in the photos. Although it is unused, it has been stored at home, so please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to this.
