Family lunches, dinners with loved ones, snacks and toasts with friends or colleagues: during the Christmas period there are many opportunities to meet at the table. The cheerful atmosphere and the desire to be together go hand in hand with the desire to create a special mise en place, whether it is elegant and not banal, traditional but with an extra twist, or fun and over the top.
It all starts from the choice of textile: some tablecloth, napkins, or perhaps a more informal setting with placemats. As always, the trend for the Christmas table is not uniquebut there are different strands or “schools of thought” that really satisfy everyone, those who have a more classic soul and who, on the contrary, loves experiment with home decoration. Festive, surprising, imaginative, textiles for the Christmas table are never an obvious choice.
Traditional Christmas tablecloths, but not too much
There are solutions that they wink at the classic Christmas table, but renew it with small accents of style and details. Like the vaguely oriental tablecloth of The House of Lyriathe Santa Claus red one with delicate tone-on-tone decorations by Ikeaor the proposal of Zara Home with scalloped edge and small cross-stitched characters.
Colourful, surrealist, informal: Christmas tablecloths that surprise
There is no shortage of proposals for those who love to reinvent the atmosphere of the holidays, opting for more experimental and design oriented solutions. It’s impossible not to mention the surrealist paintings of Gohar Worldbut also the colorful placemats of The Double J or those in linen and lurex by Society Limonta. And, obviously, the honorable mention goes to the never obvious Lisa Cortiwhich for the 2024 Christmas lunch offers a tablecloth with printed tiger skin to be placed among the diners.
Maxi patterns and maximalist decorations
For those looking for a tablecloth that attracts attention, there are proposals with giant and colorful prints. Above all, the one with the snowy winter landscape of Mirabello Carrarathe tablecloth with a crown of giant poinsettias by Caleffi or that contemporary tartan of Fazzini.
