A red Christmas tablecloth for every day

Some linens are just too pretty to use once a year, and that’s the case with Fete Royale. Because the collection doesn’t feature a typical holiday motif like trees, snowflakes, or gingerbread mean, you’re able to use it any time you like.

It will brighten up a kitchen or dining room painted in grey, beige, greige, or white, and it will look stunning in a traditional red dining room. Here are a few ways that we envision using a black and red tablecloth from Fete Royale in the home year-round.

Tonal variations are inherent to the block printing process and enhance the individuality, character and uniqueness of each creation.
