Lace table runner: white, 40 cm wide, in 90, 120 or 180 cm
The Lace table runner is available in white, with a fixed width of 40 cm and three lengths: 90, 120, and 180 cm. These sizes make it possible to dress up a small table, a console table, a compact dining table, or an accent piece of furniture without covering the entire surface. The lace primarily creates a play of transparency and texture, making it particularly striking on a wooden surface or a solid-colored tablecloth that remains visible through the openwork areas.
White makes for easy combinations. It works well with light or dark wood, ivory, beige, powder pink, sage green, burgundy, or a few black details. For a wedding or christening decoration, it can serve as a very bright base; for everyday use, simply reduce the number of accessories for a simpler look.
40 cm wide: measure the space between the plates
A width of 40 cm is more prominent than a 28 or 30 cm runner. Before purchasing, place two plates face to face and measure the free area in the center. If it is close to 40 cm, the textile will naturally fit perfectly. On a narrower table, the lace may slightly go under the plates; in that case, keep the centerpiece minimal.
On a console table, the 40 cm width can actually be an advantage: it allows you to highlight several objects while leaving the furniture visible around it.
40 × 90 cm
For a small table, coffee table, console, or compact decoration placed entirely on the furniture.
40 × 120 cm
For an intermediate-sized table or a slight overhang on a shorter surface.
40 × 180 cm
For a family table, a sideboard, or a more pronounced overhang.
How to choose the length?
Measure the surface before ordering. On an 80 cm table, the 120 cm size will provide about 20 cm of overhang at each end. On a 140 cm table, the 180 cm size will also provide about 20 cm on each side. If your piece of furniture is 120 or 180 cm long, you can choose the identical size and keep the Lace table runner entirely on the surface.
An overhang is primarily decorative. On a table where chairs are close to the ends, a setup without an overhang might be more practical.
How to highlight the lace?
The contrast of textures is essential. On wood, the openwork pattern stands out naturally. On a beige or powder pink tablecloth, the white becomes more visible and the table looks more dressed up. A white base creates a more subtle tone-on-tone effect where the texture takes precedence over the color.
Keep the tableware relatively simple. Matte ceramic, clear glass, and a few flowers are enough. If you use a patterned tablecloth, check that its design does not clash with that of the lace.
For a wedding, a dinner, or a console table
The Lace table runner can be used for a wedding, a christening, a birthday, a romantic dinner, or simply to dress up a piece of furniture for daily life. For a ceremony, several small vases and protected candles allow you to maintain a light decor. On a console, a vase, a lamp, and a few books are enough to create a more homey composition.
On a sideboard, leave areas of the textile visible between the dishes. The lace then provides a decorative continuity without requiring many additional accessories.
How to layer the lace over a tablecloth?
Choose a solid-colored tablecloth so the pattern remains readable. White on beige creates a natural look, on dusty rose a softer atmosphere, on sage green a botanical contrast, and on burgundy a more profound table. Avoid layering with multiple openwork or heavily textured textiles: one main texture is enough.
For a suitable base, browse the Tablecloth collection. Simple placemats can structure each place setting.
Compare with other lace runners
The Table runner collection allows you to compare several styles. The Lace table runner offers a different lace format, while the White table runner allows you to keep a light palette with more length choices.
Care instructions
To care for the Lace table runner, follow the instructions on its label. An openwork structure requires gentle handling: avoid snagging the textile with rough or pointed objects and do not pull on an isolated thread. If stained, quickly remove the excess and then dab delicately.
Let the textile dry completely before storing it. Soft folding, without heavy compression, helps preserve the texture and limits creases.
