Elegance, tradition, and the art of entertaining

Published on

At Christmas, the table becomes more than just a place to gather: it is the stage where laughter, reunions, and memories come to life. At Beauvillé, we believe that a festive table is not improvised, it is composed, curated, and told like a story.

Here are the secrets to creating an unforgettable, elegant, and heartwarming Christmas table, beautifully enhanced with our exceptional tablecloth collections.

Make the tablecloth the centerpiece

The tablecloth sets the tone of the celebration. It defines the atmosphere and becomes the visual foundation of the moment. For Christmas, choose noble materials such as cotton satin, selected by Beauvillé for its silky sheen, softness, and impeccable drape.

Each tablecloth tells a story. Choose the one that will tell yours.

Harmonize napkins and accessories

A beautifully set table shines through its details.
Match napkins, placemats, or table runners to create a cohesive and elegant look.

  • Choose coordinated napkins to extend the design without overwhelming the table.

  • Add subtle metallic touches (gold or silver) to elevate the setting.

  • Use transparent or lightly tinted glassware to reflect the glow of candlelight.

Create a nature-inspired centerpiece

A centerpiece is the visual heart of your table.
Elegance lies in balanced simplicity.

Refined and easy ideas:

  • Sprigs of fir or eucalyptus

  • Small pinecones and dried fruits

  • Delicate candles or glass tealights

  • A touch of red, gold, or white depending on your chosen theme

Remember: leave enough space for guests to see each other and converse naturally.

Let lighting create the magic

Lighting transforms the ambiance.

For Christmas, opt for a soft, warm, and shimmering glow:

  • White or gold candles

  • Fine string lights

  • Indirect light instead of harsh overhead lighting

This gentle illumination highlights the fabric’s texture and enhances the depth of Beauvillé’s colors.

Celebrate with Beauvillé: The elegan

ce of French craftsmanship

Since 1839, our tablecloths have been printed and crafted in Alsace, in our Ribeauvillé workshops. Each piece reflects precise handwork, preserved know-how, and a deep love for the art of the French table.

Giving or receiving a Beauvillé tablecloth is an invitation to celebrate with beauty, authenticity, and meaning.
