Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions.
What materials are Pimpernel coasters made from?
Pimpernel coasters are crafted from cork-backed MDF boards that give them a solid, non-slip feel on any surface. The top layer is finished with a high-gloss lacquer that bonds the printed design while forming a tough protective barrier against heat and moisture. This combination of materials means the coasters stay looking sharp even with heavy everyday use.
How do I clean and maintain Pimpernel coasters?
Cleaning is straightforward — simply wipe the surface with a damp cloth after each use and pat dry. Avoid soaking them in water or running them through the dishwasher, as prolonged moisture can affect the backing over time. Keeping them dry between uses also helps preserve the cork layer and prevents any warping.
Can I use these coasters for hot drinks?
Absolutely. The coasters are specifically designed to handle heat from both hot and cold beverages without transferring that temperature to your table or showing damage on the surface. The lacquered finish holds up well against the heat of a freshly brewed cup of tea or coffee, making them a practical choice for daily use. Cold drinks with condensation are equally handled without leaving rings on the coaster itself.
Are the designs suitable for all interior decor styles?
Yes — the range spans everything from traditional countryside artwork and floral botanicals to cleaner, more modern geometric patterns, so there is a design that feels at home in virtually any room. You can browse the collections to find prints that match your existing colour palette and furniture style. Mixing different sets is also a popular approach for a layered, curated look.
How many coasters come in a standard set?
Most standard sets include six coasters, which is enough for a small gathering or a full household of regular users. The six-piece format also makes these sets a very practical gift, especially collections like the Pimpernel Christmas coasters that are ready to be used straight out of the box during the festive season. Some designs may also be available in smaller or larger quantities depending on the collection.
