Mexican Artist Coasters

This Frida Kahlo Coaster Design by Seth Muertos Makes Coffee Bolder

— October 5, 2013 — Art & Design
This coaster design features a bold print of Frida Kahlo, a Mexican artist known for her self-portraits. The coasters are made out of masonite board, giving them natural resistance to moistness and a soft yet solid feel. The images by Seth Muertos make the coaster design great for keeping your table surfaces safe, but also as a hanging art piece. The set of four could be attached to a zigzag hanger in this circumstance.

The Frida Kahlo coasters are a fun and artistic addition to any home, not to mention a great conversation piece while entertaining or enjoying coffee or tea with friends. The bright colors add an interesting visual element to a kitchen item not usually recognized for its design potential.
