Table linens

Reusable cotton and linen napkins and table covers, alongside natural-fiber placemats.

Washable fabric can do the job without a stain-repellent treatment.  We favor natural fibers and avoid added PFAS finishes, while matching the weave and care instructions to the item's use.  Absorbent napkins, protective tablecloths and woven jute placemats each bring something different to the table.

Frette Modernism Outline Cotton-Linen Placemats and Napkins — Set for 2 Frette Modernism Outline Cotton-Linen Placemats and Napkins — Set for 2 COTTONLINEN Why we recommend it: This coordinated set gives two diners cotton-linen placemats and matching napkins, rather than synthetic-fiber table textiles.  Made in Italy, it combines a 60% cotton, 40% linen fabric with an embroidered outline and neatly finished napkins.  It is a decorative fabric option, not a wipe-clean or waterproof mat; follow the sewn care label when cleaning. Materials: 60% cotton, 40% linen fabric · embroidery-thread composition not specified $550.00 View product
Le Jacquard Français Bistrot Français Cotton Napkins — Set of 2 Le Jacquard Français Bistrot Français Cotton Napkins — Set of 2 COTTON Why we recommend it: These French-made napkins offer a soft, combed-cotton alternative to disposable napkins or polyester table linens.  The manufacturer also identifies OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 testing for harmful substances.  The red checks are woven into the fabric, with a blue border.  Wash at up to 40°C and air-dry, following the manufacturer's instructions. Materials: 100% long-staple combed cotton fabric $60.00 View product
Linoto Artisan Heavy Linen Tablecloth, Ecru 64 × 80 in Linoto Artisan Heavy Linen Tablecloth, Ecru 64 × 80 in LINEN Why we recommend it: Undyed, unbleached flax gives this tablecloth its natural ecru color and substantial texture—a fabric alternative to a vinyl table covering.  The linen is prewashed before cutting, and a mitered border finishes the drape.  Cut and sewn in New York from imported cloth; choose the size for your table rather than treating it as a wipe-clean waterproof cover. Materials: undyed, unbleached flax linen $555.00 View product
Linoto Linen Dinner Napkins — White, Set of 4 Linoto Linen Dinner Napkins — White, Set of 4 LINEN Why we recommend it: Linoto's 21-inch linen napkins are cut and sewn in New York from European fabric.  Their simple label loop doubles as a hanging loop or a way to hold a folded napkin together, so a separate napkin ring is optional.  The absorbent flax fabric is a reusable alternative to paper napkins or polyester table linens; this is a four-piece pack, made to order. Materials: 100% flax-linen fabric · label-loop and sewing-thread fibers not specified $75.00 View product
SFERRA Festival Linen Tablecloth — Navy, 66 × 86 in SFERRA Festival Linen Tablecloth — Navy, 66 × 86 in LINEN Why we recommend it: Festival offers a washable, woven-linen alternative to a wipe-clean vinyl table cover.  This Lithuanian-made tablecloth has a hemstitched border and a straightforward 100% linen fabric composition.  The 66-by-86-inch rectangle should be chosen to suit both your tabletop and the overhang you prefer.  Expect laundering and ironing, rather than a stain-proof surface. Materials: 100% linen fabric $187.00 View product
