Leafy table runner: a touch of greenery to enhance your meals
The foliage table runner is the perfect accessory to dress up a table without overwhelming it. Its botanical pattern creates a fresh and elegant atmosphere, ideal for a dinner party with friends, a Sunday brunch, or a family gathering. In one simple step, it structures the table, highlights your tableware, and ties together candles, flowers, and textiles.
Made from 100% polyester , carefully knitted and printed, this foliage table runner is both supple, durable, and easy to care for: it won't lose its shape, pill, or fade, and retains its colors wash after wash. Whether you place it on a plain tablecloth or directly on a wooden tray, it brings an "indoor garden" feel that instantly warms up the décor.
Green tip – create a plant-based table without cluttering it up
Pair your foliage table runner with just two or three elements: a few eucalyptus leaves, white candles, and plain tableware. The pattern remains the star, and the table gains elegance without becoming cluttered.
Why choose a foliage table runner?
-
Instant nature ambiance : the foliage pattern evokes an undergrowth, a garden or a greenhouse, even in an apartment.
-
Modular decor : it can be placed on a tablecloth or directly on the table to change the atmosphere in seconds.
-
Discreet protection : it limits friction from dishes and vases, while allowing the material of the tray to show through.
-
Graphic effect : the elongated format guides the eye, highlights the center of the table and structures the composition.
Material & finish: an easy-care foliage table runner
This leafy table runner is made of 100% knitted polyester . This modern material offers several everyday advantages:
-
Durable and stable : the textile is resistant , does not deform and retains its shape even after many uses.
-
Anti-pilling : the mesh limits the formation of lint, for a neat finish over time.
-
Long-lasting colors : the foliage pattern print is crisp, the outlines are precise, and the colors do not fade easily.
-
Flexible and lightweight : easy to set up, fold, store, it fits in a drawer, a sideboard or a basket.
The foliage pattern is printed on one side, with a decorative finish that works equally well on a dining room table as on a kitchen table or sheltered terrace table.

Foliage pattern: colours and moods
The foliage pattern instantly adds rhythm and softness. Depending on the shades, your foliage table runner can evoke a lush jungle, a Mediterranean garden, or a more graphic feel. It pairs perfectly with:
- White tableware to let the pattern breathe and play on the contrast.
-
Stoneware or ceramic plates in natural tones (beige, sand, terracotta).
- Accessories made of wood , rattan or linen to enhance the natural feel.
In the evening, a few candles, a vase of fresh or dried flowers and your table runner become the common thread of a warm and welcoming table.
Blue tip – coordinate the decor around the foliage
Repeat a shade of the foliage pattern on napkins, a bouquet, or a ribbon around the glasses. Two touches are enough to create a cohesive and visually sophisticated table setting.
Maintenance and longevity
Thanks to its polyester composition, this foliage table runner is machine washable . A simple routine will keep it looking fresh:
- Recommended washing temperature: 30°C , delicate cycle.
- Use a mild detergent, without harsh bleaching agents.
- Air dry, flat or on a hanger, to preserve the shape.
- Lightly iron on the reverse side if needed, at a low temperature.
The fabric dries quickly and retains its shape beautifully, ready to be used again for the next meal. Regular care will allow you to enjoy your table runner for years to come, looking just like new.
Don't do
Avoid bleach and harsh stain removers, as these can damage the foliage pattern. Do not wash at high temperatures or soak for extended periods. Do not tumble dry on high heat; excessive heat can weaken the fibers.
