Know before you buy
Natural indigo is a living dye that may fade slightly or soften in color with repeated washing, which is part of its intended character. To preserve the depth of the indigo, we recommend washing in cold water and avoiding harsh detergents.
Yes, as this runner is crafted from 100% linen, it will naturally develop a relaxed, textured look. If you prefer a crisp appearance, you can lightly steam or iron the runner on a linen setting.
Each runner is unique due to the artisanal dabu resist printing process. While the striped pattern remains consistent, you may notice slight variations in color saturation or print alignment that reflect the human touch of the master artisans.
While the runner is rectangular and designed for standard dining tables, it can certainly be used on round or square tables. Just ensure your table is long enough to allow the ends of the 80-inch runner to drape gracefully over the sides.
For best results, blot spills immediately with a clean, damp cloth rather than rubbing the fabric. Because the runner is machine washable, you can launder it on a gentle cycle with cold water if a deeper clean is required.
