I cannot get over how beautiful this tablecloth is! The block printing is even more beautiful in person! The colors are bright and vivid, much more than my own pictures will show. The pattern is pretty even throughout, it does have some rogue ink in some spaces, but that is the nature of block printing and is absolutely not a deterrent. In fact, it only adds to its originality and craftsmanship. The overall style lends itself nicely to my dining room and I cannot wait to use this tablecloth at a future dinner party! As for care, Im not entirely certain how this canshould be washed, but I dont intend on using this as a regular table linen, it will be used for entertaining only. Looking at this companys other offerings, they have such a wide variety of other tablecloths, I am so happy with this one I will most definitely look into their other items for a future purchase! I highly highly recommend this lovely tablecloth.
