18" X 18"

100% vintage cotton

All napkins in one set of four are made from the same corte. However, one set may differ from the next set, but they are all very close in design and color. You can see examples of various sets in the photos.

Handmade Vintage

This product is made with handmade, upcycled fabric. We believe the minor imperfections associated with vintage fabric are part of the charm and uniqueness of the item. We do our best to take photos that accurately represent the true colors and worn nature of the handwoven fabric, but colors vary across monitors, and photos can’t highlight all aspects of a product.
