La nonna Pistacchio tablecloth

The last plate is set down, bread passes from hand to hand and the meal finds its rhythm. The La Nonna tablecloth by La Cerise sur le Gâteau sets the scene for moments when everyone stays together a little longer. Its checks give the table a visual thread, whether you enjoy simple everyday meals or a larger gathering prepared for guests.

Organic cotton for a table you look forward to using

This tablecloth is made from 100% organically grown cotton and manufactured in Portugal. It brings a textile surface to the table and another way to arrange the meal: plain plates, a few glasses and the pattern may be all you need. At Anna & Moi, we like leaving room for pieces you already own rather than adding accessories for a single occasion.

160 × 250 or 160 × 350 cm: start with the table’s measurements

Both sizes are 160 cm wide, with a choice of 250 or 350 cm in length. Measure the tabletop in both directions, with any extensions fitted if you intend to use them. Then consider how much fabric you want hanging over the sides and ends. Those dimensions are more useful than relying only on the number of guests a table is said to seat.

Before ordering, check the size and colour combination in this page’s selector. If your plans call for another format, browse our tablecloths using the same measurements to guide your comparison.

Caviar or Pistacchio, alongside your favourite crockery

Caviar offers a dark backdrop, while Pistacchio brings in green. Plain plates give the checks space; you can also pick up a colour from a glass or serving dish you already enjoy using. The La Nonna collection connects the table with the kitchen. Choose pieces that will be useful, then build your combination over the course of many meals.

After the meal, keep clear care references

Mamimosa’s advice starts before washing: clear everything from the table and remove crumbs before gathering up the cloth. Its label provides the model’s washing, drying and ironing instructions. If there is a stain, identify what caused it before choosing a treatment suitable for the fabric, rather than using one recipe for every kind of spill.

Questions for planning your table

These two practical examples take you from choosing the cloth to preparing each place, using your measurements and actual guest numbers.

What overhang will it give on a 90 × 180 cm table?

With the 160 × 250 cm tablecloth, the difference is 70 cm in each direction. Centred on this tabletop, it therefore gives approximately 35 cm of overhang on each side and at each end. Use that calculation as a guide to the look you want.

How many napkin sets do I need for six people?

The La Nonna napkins are sold in pairs. For one napkin per person at a table of six, you therefore need three sets. Choose their colour on the corresponding product page to coordinate them with your tablecloth.
