How to Choose the Right Tablecloth Size
Finding the perfect tablecloth starts with two simple measurements: your table and your preferred drop. Follow our guide to find the perfect fit for your table.
Step 1: Measure Your Table
Measure your tabletop in centimetres using the illustrations below.
Rectangular Tables
Measure the length and width of your tabletop.
Round Tables
Measure the diameter straight across the centre of your tabletop.
Step 2: Choose Your Drop
The drop is how far the tablecloth hangs over each edge of your table. Add twice your preferred drop to each tabletop measurement.
The drop is measured from the tabletop edge to the bottom of the hanging fabric.
For a table measuring 160 × 80 cm with a 25 cm drop, you would need a tablecloth measuring approximately 210 × 130 cm. Choose the nearest suitable available size.

A Note on Handmade Pieces
All our tablecloths are lovingly handcrafted and hand block-printed, so finished dimensions may vary by a few centimetres. These subtle variations are part of their individual charm. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up for a more generous, elegant drape.
