I am pleased to present a retired Pomona red acrylic tablemat featuring the Teinton Squash Pear motif on the face. These large tablemats have not been made for several years and are especially unique because of the red background color. This item looks unused and still has the 'Made In England' Portmeirion goldtone sticker attached to the back.

In person, the background red is more like a brick red. On my monitor the red is brighter than the actual color. The background might look a little uneven due to some uneven photo lighting, but is is a consistent color overall.


It is about 15-3/4" by 11-3/4" and is about 1/4" thick. It appears to be made from a pressboard base with a acrylic transfer on the front and a layer of cork on the back.


This mat is in very nice condition. Along the edge there are two extremely tiny dots of white, probably there from when it was made. It is about as close to mint as possible.

Here are cleaning instructions I found on some literature from the time it was made:

Coated with an acrylic finish. Will withstand temperatures to the boiling point of water. Resistant to normal household stains, Clean with a damp sponge and dry with a soft cloth. Not suitable as cutting boards. Do not immerse in water.

The color of the cork is a consistent color over all. The darker color on the right is from uneven photo lighting.

There is a round gold tone sticker on the back that says:
