Oilcloth tablecloths
When I think of
beautiful Mexican kitchens, I conjure up pictures of thick adobe walls,
hand painted tiles, wood carved spoons and clay cooking pots. Old kitchens
would always have big buckets of fresh flowers, cascades of fresh fruit
and herbs, braids of garlic and red chiles hanging over the stone metate.
In the 1930's, oilcloth became a bright & colorful addition to the
kitchen, work area, dining room and open-air market food stalls. It came
in many delightful designs, which were influenced by European textile
designs of the day. We carry the best oilcloth available; many designs
come from re-engraved rollers that originated back in 1930's Mexico. -AV
Double Delight oilcloth tablecloths - exclusively ours! |
| These two-toned round oilcloth tablecloths feature our most popular designs in the middle and coordinates them with a fun, second pattern around the edge.
There are no seams down the middle which can make your dishware not sit flat. (Glasses that wobble in Spanish are said to "bailen", or dance on top the table - chairs "bailen" also! )
Double Delight tablecloths are finished with sewn bias tape around the
bottom edge for a great look! Our round tablecloths do not come with umbrella holes, so they may be use inside the house as well.
If kept out of extreme heat and direct sunshine, oilcloth is quite durable and an excellent choice for the patio.
Fold marks (creases) relax and smooth out
in a short time - faster in warm weather.
