A bare desk amplifies keyboard noise and gives the wrists a hard edge; a wool felt desk mat removes both. Each desk mat on this page is pressed from 3 mm merino wool felt and comes in three sizes, from an 11x20 inch pad that covers a mouse and compact keyboard to a 14x34 inch mat that covers a full workstation, with an optional natural latex anti-slip backing for smooth desks. Leather-topped mouse pads and wool felt coasters match the mats, and a cable organizer keeps chargers off the felt.
Felt desk mat – a flat pad of pressed wool or synthetic felt that lies on a desk under the keyboard and mouse, protects the desk surface, dampens typing noise and gives the mouse an even tracking surface. A wool felt desk mat is specified by fiber (merino or blended wool), thickness (commonly 3–5 mm) and size, and may carry an anti-slip backing.
