Orbis Lacteus Coaster

A quiet foundation for the everyday

Named Orbis Lacteus, Latin for "the Milky Circle," this coaster carries the same quiet elegance as its coordinating placemat, translated into a smaller, more intimate form. Like the gentle arc of stars across the night sky, its circular silhouette reflects harmony, connection, and the beauty of shared moments.

Hand-braided from natural abaca fibres, Orbis Lacteus brings warmth and texture to every setting, whether resting a morning cup or an evening glass.

Hand-braided with heritage

Every Orbis Lacteus Coaster is individually braided by skilled artisans. Subtle variations in weave and tone are the signature of the artisan's hand, so no two coasters are exactly alike.

Abaca, a natural fibre

Crafted from natural abaca, a strong plant fibre, Orbis Lacteus brings visible texture and warm oat and earth tones to the table.

A founding piece for the modern table

Part of the inaugural COLĒRE Founding Collection, this coaster reflects our appreciation for hand-braided objects and everyday rituals.
