Description
These paper napkins come in a pack of 20, and each one is a square 33cm long and 33cm wide: a comfortable size for lunch, supper or afternoon tea, and larger than a small cocktail napkin. The design has the charm of an old folk print. A plump bird with a long, fanned tail stands at the foot of a thicket of leafy sprigs, and tiny five-petalled flowers are scattered across the open space above it. The linework is loose and hand-drawn in feel, set on a natural ground, so it looks more like a printed textile than a party napkin.
We think of them first for the kitchen table and the dining room. Lay one on each plate under the knife and fork for a Sunday lunch, fan a stack beside a bowl of berries at breakfast, or wrap a slice of birthday cake for a guest to carry home. They suit anyone who likes a country kitchen look, with stoneware, linen and scrubbed wood, and they are just as much at home outdoors on a garden table or packed into a picnic basket, where cloth napkins would only need washing afterwards. A pack on the shelf means a table can be laid at short notice.
They are made of paper, with a fine raised pattern pressed into the surface and a printed border running along the edges of the design, which gives them a little more texture in the hand than a flat print. Being paper, they need no washing or ironing: use them and clear them away with the plates. For styling, fold each napkin so the bird sits on the front edge facing the guest, and keep the rest of the table plain, with simple stoneware and wooden boards, so the leafy pattern has room to show.
