Looking for linen – what do our linen-blend napkins offer?
The napkins in this category contain 50% linen and 50% cotton. You are therefore choosing a blended fabric rather than a pure linen napkin. This composition applies to all colours offered here.
The composition tells you more than the name
When comparing different linen napkin offers, check the stated fibre percentages. A similar colour or surface does not mean that two napkins are made from the same material. Our products specify the blend as 50% linen and 50% cotton.
Consider the fabric and finish separately
The blend describes the fibres. How a napkin looks on the table also depends on the weave, colour, hem and preparation. Compare detailed photographs of the surface and edges too. The term “linen blend” alone does not indicate mitred corners or a satin border.
Assess the washed fabric before ordering larger quantities
If feel and foldability are particularly important to you, try a standard set of 6 first. Wash and dry it according to the care instructions, then prepare the napkins as you intend to use them. Assess the result at your place setting afterwards.
For a meaningful comparison: Place a previously washed cotton napkin beside the washed linen-blend napkin. Compare both in the same fold. This helps you assess differences in feel and appearance under comparable conditions.
Natural, white or a colourful accent?
All colours offered have the same fabric composition and nominal dimensions. When choosing a colour, you can therefore focus on your tablecloth, crockery and lighting.
Natural and white
For these napkins, natural is described as a medium beige. Compare it directly with your tablecloth: against white, it creates a visible colour contrast, while the effect may be much subtler alongside cream or beige.
“Natural” is a colour name here. It does not establish whether the fabric is undyed or unbleached.
Light blue, light green and grey
These options bring colour to the table without creating a very dark accent. Particularly with coloured crockery, check whether the napkin and plate work well together.
Compare the combination in daylight and under the lighting you will use at the table.
Red and dark blue
Red and dark blue create a clear contrast on a light tablecloth. If flowers, candles or crockery already feature strong colours, test a complete place setting before ordering in quantity.
Dark blue is also referred to as navy in the product listing.
For precise colour coordination: Screen images cannot replace comparing fabrics side by side. If you are adding to existing table linen, place the new napkin directly on it and add a plate and cutlery.

Linen-blend napkins in 50 × 50 cm: from a set of 6 to the finished table
Try the size after the first wash
The napkins offered measure approximately 50 × 50 cm. Folded in half twice, this theoretically produces a square of about 25 × 25 cm. As the dimensions are approximate and natural-fibre fabrics can shrink during washing, decide on any precise folding dimensions after the first wash.
For a narrow space beside the plate, fold the fabric into a rectangle. If you would like to use a napkin ring, test its opening with a napkin that has already been washed and prepared for use.
When combining colours, calculate each colour separately
Each pack contains six napkins of the same colour. Two sets provide twelve napkins, and three sets provide eighteen. To set twelve places alternating between natural and white, one set of 6 in each colour is sufficient.
For eight places in a single colour, you need two sets of 6, leaving four spare napkins. Start by planning the number of places in each colour, then convert this into complete sets.
Do not assume the same care as other table linen
According to the product information, the linen-blend napkins offered here are washable up to 60 °C. This does not permit washing at 95 °C, even if you wash other white table linen at that temperature.
Also check the drying, ironing and bleaching instructions for the individual item. A permitted washing temperature does not tell you whether tumble drying or bleach is suitable.
Smooth or relaxed: choose your finish
A linen blend is not automatically non-iron simply because it contains cotton. If you want crisp folds, allow time for ironing according to the care label. For a casually set table, gentle creases can be part of the intended look.
For a consistent result: Prepare all napkins for the table in the same way. A thoroughly pressed napkin looks different beside one that has only been loosely folded, even when both come from the same pack.
Understanding linen and linen-blend napkins
No. The napkins in this category contain 50% linen and 50% cotton. They are therefore sold as a linen blend. If you specifically require pure linen, this blend does not meet that material requirement.
No. In this range, “natural” describes a medium beige shade. The colour name does not establish that the fabric is undyed or unbleached.
Yes. Natural, white, red, dark blue, light blue, light green and grey are each listed as 50% linen and 50% cotton. The approximate size of 50 × 50 cm and the pack quantity of six are also the same for these options.
The products offered here specify a washing temperature of up to 60 °C. Washing at 95 °C is therefore not permitted by these instructions. Follow your napkins’ care labels, even if other table linen can withstand higher temperatures.
Yes. Napkins and tablecloths do not need to have the same fibre composition. Colour, surface texture and preparation determine the overall appearance. Place the folded napkin on your tablecloth and assess the combination with your crockery and lighting.
