The art of the table by Beauvillé

Published on

As the festive season approaches, the table becomes much more than just a place to share a meal, it’s the heart of the home, where everything begins. Choosing your Christmas tablecloth means setting the stage for a unique moment, where every detail tells a story. At Beauvillé, that story has been written in Alsace since 1839, through craftsmanship, artistry, and the excellence of French-made table linens.

Choosing the right atmosphere

Every Christmas has its own ambiance. Before thinking about colors or shapes, ask yourself what emotion you want your table to convey.

  • Timeless elegance: Réveillon is the tablecloth for grand celebrations. Its delicate Christmas wreath, adorned with red ribbons and golden details, evokes the magic of festive evenings.

Creating harmony: the elegance of detail

A Beauvillé tablecloth can stand beautifully on its own, but its magic deepens when paired with matching napkins, placemats, or table runners. The art of the table is about harmony coordinated patterns, complementary textures, and a few hints of light to elevate the whole scene.

Add a few candles, crystal glasses, and a delicate centerpiece, and your table is ready for an unforgettable Christmas dinner.

The beauty of materials: the nobility of cotton satin

Behind every Beauvillé fabric lies a rare level of excellence, that of cotton satin. Selected for its softness, durability, and luminous sheen, this exceptional material enhances the beauty of hand-printed motifs, created with an ancestral technique unique in Europe.

A Beauvillé tablecloth doesn’t just decorate your table, it transforms it. With its perfect drape, subtle shine, and silky texture, every meal becomes a sensory experience.

Finding the perfect size

A perfectly fitted tablecloth instantly elevates your table setting. For an elegant drop, allow around 20 to 30 cm (8–12 inches) of overhang on each side.
Beauvillé collections are available in several formats, square, rectangular, large rectangular, or made-to-measure to suit all tables, from intimate dinners to festive gatherings.

The final touch: enhancing your table

The secret to a beautifully set table lies in the details, an elegantly folded napkin, a natural centerpiece, and tableware that harmonizes with your tablecloth’s tones. At Beauvillé, we like to think of the table as a stage, and the tablecloth as its backdrop.

Giving or treating yourself to excellence

Choosing a Beauvillé tablecloth is far more than an aesthetic choice: it’s an expression of love for beauty, quality, and French craftsmanship. Each piece, printed and sewn in our Ribeauvillé workshops, embodies two centuries of textile tradition and innovation.
