Cloth napkins in the Charlotte Plaid, a nutmeg ground crossed with red, indigo, and olive. A set of four, handwoven from 100% cotton by artisans in Chiapas, Mexico.

How you present them matters more than most people expect. A flat fold laid across the plate reads formal; the same napkin loosely draped to the left of the fork, or slipped under the plate edge with the corner showing, reads like a house where people actually eat. Skip the elaborate fold: on a woven plaid it hides the pattern, which is the thing you paid for.

The brown base is what buys this one two seasons. It sits on a Thanksgiving table with pears and candlelight, then goes straight through Christmas without looking out of place.

Perfect for: Christmas dinner, Thanksgiving tables, holiday entertaining, friendsgiving, winter dining, and hostess gifts.

They match the Charlotte Plaid Holiday Tablecloth.
