A square tablecloth in a cotton-polyester blend, woven with a fine crocheted openwork edge and finished with a knotted fringe on all four sides. The cloth has a slight texture to it rather than a flat sheen, and the four colours — khaki, light yellow, yellow and light green — are all soft enough to sit under tableware without shouting.
Three sizes, and they are worked out for round tables: 86 × 86 cm covers a small round table up to about 60 cm across, 130 × 130 cm suits 60–100 cm, and 180 × 180 cm covers 100–140 cm. The square-over-round arrangement is what gives the fringe somewhere to hang. On a square or rectangular table the same cloths work as a layered topper over a plain base.
If you are measuring your own table, the working rule is to add 40–60 cm to each dimension, which gives a drop of roughly 20–30 cm on every side. The stated sizes include the fringe, so measure to the knot rather than the hem. 30% cotton and 70% polyester, which washes cool and comes out with very little creasing. Vandora looks for pieces that stay out for a season, not a weekend.
