Elrene Home Fashions Villeroy & Boch La Classica Luxury Linen Fabric Napkin (Set of 4), 21"x21", White

Ordered 70x126 in gold and grey. Posted pics of both the grey to dark and harsh. Keeping the gold. Washed in the machine on delicate and dried in the dryer on low for about 15 min. Was probably dry in 10. Did shrink in length some but it was to long to start with. I now have an 8 inch drop and the recommended is 10 inch drop but it is fine. Probably 7 inches to wide, but I am sure after multiple washing it will shrink a little more. I did iron it on a silk setting with the steam on. Considering it is 90% linen 10% lurex I feel the price is very reasonable. If taken care of should last for years. Next time I wash it I will hang to dry. Wayfair has this brand as well a little cheaper but not a large selection of sizes. Plus Amazons shipping is a major plus for me. They have spoiled me. I no longer drive from store to store trying to find what I want. Do not deal with traffic do not have to wear a mask at home. Its a win win. I would recommend this just keep in mind it is linen and will wrinkle and require ironing but for me it is worth it.

CONS:1) Linen must be ironed to look like the product photos after washing. The wrinkled look does not go with the refined styling of this tablecloth.2) Stains are not easy to get out. If you choose any light colored linen you may have to replace your tablecloth frequently or live with remnants of stains (tomato sauce, anyone?).3) Lint balls are intrinsic to linen fabric. By "lint balls" I mean areas where fibers have gathered and does not look as smooth as surrounding areas. I use a lint brush to tame these balls.4) The color Dove Gray is not gray at all. It's an off white or almond color.PROS:1) Villeroy & Boch is a quality brand and this is top quality linen. The hemmed edges are lovely.If you're okay with the cons then consider this purchase. If you need a lower maintenance tablecloth don't buy linen.In the end I repurposed this tablecloth into an extra bedsheet! It's especially useful in hot summer weather, like now. The dimensions are similar to a twin top sheet, or ideal for one person. Since I didn't like the Dove Gray color I dyed a pattern into the fabric using the "shibori" dye method (a kind of Japanese tie dye). I absolutely love my bedsheet now, but did not find this useful as tablecloth.

This is very elegant and adds a simple, charming beauty to our home/dining area. I love the natural linen fabric (a replacement for a made-in-China shiny-ish polyester tablecloth that showed wear after only a year...lesson learned... Will now buy only high-quality beautiful and useful items made to last for years).So how has this held up over many months of daily use (I don't buy multiples of things if I don't need to, so this is our only tablecloth now.)? I was pretty worried when I hosted a dinner party and some red wine and beet hummus spilled onto it, but after the evening's fun, I used some stain remover and laundered it. It came out like new, and today it still looks beautiful, new, and stain-free after many washes.

We ordered these for our Thanksgiving table. We ordered two, and we were quite pleased with them. Someone spilled red wine on the table, and with an overnight soak in Oxyclean, the tablecloths were as good as new. No need to iron if you hang dry.

I ordered these because I’m a private chef and have a high-end client. We wash them frequently and they have not faded too bad. Love the quality. They do need to be pressed just be aware of that and they’re nice and large to start and they do shrink a little. I plan to purchase more in other colors.

The color of these napkins are beautiful but they are a lighter yellow than in the picture. Colors can vary on whatever device you're using. That's okay because it still works for what I needed. I purchased these to match the placemats bought from Villeroy & Boch. These are thinner than I was looking for but still nice. When I bought them I didn't thoroughly read the listing and that's my bad. If I would have taken the time to realize they were linen, I probably would have passed on it. To me linen is so high maintenance but these napkins are great for casual settings. If I were looking for something more formal I wouldn't buy these.

This is a gorgeous table cloth made of fine linen. It looked great on my Thanksgiving table with the matching napkins. The sizes are great--a have a very long and narrow table and this one worked well. I've tried dozens of table cloths and they often look cheap, probably because they're made of polyester. This one requires a little more care but it's totally worth it. Right after the meal, I sprayed a little oxyiclean on the stains and popped it in the washer. The stains came right out. You will have to iron the table cloth to make it look its best.

This is a fabulous tablecloth. It didn't shrink or skew in the wash. I chose to iron it but it looked great gently wrinkled. The gray color is dove warm gray and makes my imari plates really pop. Highly recommend.

It is quite sheer. My table is light wood and it still shows through. Having said that, it looks rather ugly on its own but once the table was set up, it looked quite wonderful and the sheerness looked quite nice. It is not something I would leave on my table unless the whole table is fully set. I suppose being of thinner material meant that it dried fairly quickly. My guests had spilt drops of red wine on it over the course of dinner. By the time dinner was over, it was a good 4 hours later. It was put in the wash (cold) and left overnight as everyone went to bed. The wine stains were still visible the next morning so I rubbed stain remover on it and threw it in for a second cold wash. It came out stain free the second time round. I think it would have been fine in the first wash if the hubby had thought to apply stain remover on it. So stains are removed fairly easily I’d say. But it is sheer so for that it loses a star.

Dunno what I expected but the linen is quite rough, and not being a high class lady, I don't know if rough napkins across the lips is acceptable lol.However they're quality and will do the job.

Pretty, but not a crisp white as I’d expected. Next to my white China it looked cream coloured. Will be perfect with my everyday dishes though. Also a lot of work to iron out the creases...but that is linen. Overall I like it and it’s pretty and simple and classic.

Impossible à défroisserIl faut la repasser plusieurs fois car fait en linPayé trop cher

I like the size but it is too thin and see through. I didn’t expect that so not enough value for the price of this purchase
