“Mom has always been afraid to use it. For her, tablecloths should either be white damask or else vinyl with childish figures you take on picnics. This cloth is linen, hand printed, made in Brazil. The colors are a rich wine and eggplant—or aubergine, to those who mistakenly think the textile was made in France. It has gold medallions and assorted gourds around the border and again in the center of the cloth. It is rather like the tablecloths I’ve seen downtown at the kitchen shop that are from... Provence. Except the colors are more intense.I am not a shopper, but a year ago I had stopped by an estate sale and fallen in love with a set of dishes. I had been hiding them since that impulsive purchase. They were fire engine red and square. Mom would hate them, but I was going to use them for Thanksgiving along with Grandma’s tablecloth since for once I was having enough guests to justify putting a leaf in the table and that would lift the cloth off of the floor where it would puddle in a convenient cat size bed if the table was not extended.MoreLessRead More Read Less
