Sleek simplicity with exquisite extra detail. With a relaxed drape our tablecloth is made from a linen-cotton blend and finished with a special hem that’s been hand-worked by skilled artisans in Vietnam. The thread-drawn detail is described as ‘jour’ meaning day work and the effect can only be done by hand. It takes around eight hours to create the jour-stitch detailing onto one tablecloth.Vietnam has a rich history of traditional handicrafts and we’re proud to have been working with our supplier there for over 20 years. In a small group of villages near Hanoi known as ‘the golden villages’ women work together in homes and small workshops to create this exquisite embroidery for us. Honing this skill is a legacy passed down through communities. It’s a vital industry for women in rural areas enabling them to earn an income working in or near their homes.
