Frequently Asked Questions
How many napkins do I need for regular entertaining?
Start with two sets of 4 (8 napkins total) for a dinner party of 6-8 guests plus spares. For households that entertain frequently, three sets of 4 in coordinating styles provide flexibility to mix and match. All napkin sets in this collection are sold in sets of 4.
What is the best tea towel material for drying dishes?
Cotton and linen tea towels are the most absorbent. The waffle weave pattern in the Grey Waffle Kitchen Towels increases surface area for faster absorption and drying. The Cotton Knit Tea Towel's herringbone weave is also highly absorbent. Avoid terry cloth for glassware, as it leaves lint behind.
Can these linens be used as table runners or placemats?
The Oversized Linen Kitchen Tea Towel can double as a casual table runner for smaller tables. The Allyson and Jardin linen napkins work as informal placemats when folded in half. For a dedicated table runner, look for longer linen pieces designed for that purpose.
