There’s not a whole lot to say about this. It’s a coaster. Coasters are kind of boring. No one wants to lay a few squares around in their living room, but you do it anyways. Because you don’t trust the finish on that IKEA coffee table to resist a stain. I get it, I don’t trust it either. Coasters are a necessary evil. But THESE coasters are pretty cool. And pretty classy.
