Red and green wild strawberry table runner

The wild strawberry is a small, discreet fruit, earned one by one at the edge of the paths. This cotton table runner wild strawberry makes it the subject: tiny red strawberries and tender green leaves, in a delicate, charming motif that recalls the woodland in high summer.

Each piece is hand block-printed on good-quality cotton, in the artisan workshops of our partners in India, where block printing is a craft handed down through generations. Every impression carries the small variations of the gesture, the mark of a genuinely handmade textile rather than an industrial print. The design is created in France, in the natural, tender spirit dear to the house.

Laid on bare wood, this runner brings a fresh, sweet note to the timber while leaving it visible at either side. Over a white or natural tablecloth, it adds colour and gives the setting a clear centre line. It is a natural choice for a summer breakfast, a birthday tea or a dessert table.

This cotton table runner wild strawberry is made to be used. The cotton is hard-wearing and machine washable, it grows softer with time while keeping its colour, and it copes calmly with red fruit, crumbs and family gatherings. Washed at thirty degrees and ironed while still slightly damp, it keeps its shape and its brightness.

It works with white china, natural materials, light wood and linen, and needs very little around it. You can pair it with the matching Wild Strawberry napkins and tablecloth to compose the whole table around one motif.

Left alone on a wooden table, it turns a simple afternoon tea into something a little special.

An artisanal, tender and hard-wearing piece of table linen, for anyone who likes tables as sweet as the fruit served on them.
