Rectangular tablecloth: an elegant beige base for long tables
The Rectangular tablecloth is a simple solution for dressing a long table with a subtle textile that is easy to coordinate. Made from 100% polyester, it is available in beige and in five sizes ranging from 90 × 140 cm to 140 × 300 cm.
Its neutral color works well with wood, white, black, and natural tones. It creates a soft table setting for everyday use while remaining versatile enough for entertaining.

Beige as a calm and bright base
A beige tablecloth offers more freedom than a bold pattern. It enhances dinnerware, softens wood, and adapts very easily to the changing seasons.
Why polyester is practical for a large tablecloth
Polyester is particularly advantageous when a tablecloth is used often. It is relatively easy to care for, dries quickly, and remains easy to handle even in large sizes. For a 140 × 300 cm format, this benefit is clear when washing and drying.
The fabric is also described as oil-resistant, which helps with minor everyday spills without making the tablecloth completely waterproof.

Calculate the drop accurately
Measure the length and width of your tabletop, then add twice the desired drop. For everyday use, 20 to 30 cm on each side is a good guideline. A 100 × 180 cm table with a 140 × 220 cm tablecloth provides about a 20 cm drop all around.
On a 90 × 240 cm table, the 140 × 300 cm format provides about 25 cm on the sides and 30 cm at the ends. This type of calculation avoids choosing a size based solely on the number of seats.
Everyday table
A 20 to 25 cm drop makes it easy to use and keeps a neat silhouette around the tabletop.
Dining table
A slightly more generous drop gives a more dressed-up look, provided it remains comfortable for your guests.
Pairing beige with your dinnerware
The beige Rectangular tablecloth works particularly well with white, cream, green, or black dinnerware. For a natural ambiance, add wood and matte ceramic. For a more contemporary look, a few black or metallic elements are enough.
Terracotta, olive, or deep brown napkins help warm up the table without losing the softness of the beige background.
Measure the table with the extensions installed
If you often use an extendable table, also take measurements in its open configuration. This will help you determine if a second tablecloth size is necessary.
Care and drying
In case of a stain, quickly remove the excess then blot the area. Gentle washing at a moderate temperature is generally suitable for polyester. Avoid high temperatures and harsh treatments.
Air drying is easy thanks to the fiber's low moisture retention. If ironing is necessary, use a temperature suitable for synthetic fabrics.
