Six people, maybe eight, and the cloth goes down first. A garden in blue and white spreads across it, peonies and cherry blossom running along arabesques, carp somewhere in the ponds. The tablecloth sets the evening before a single plate lands.

From Le Jacquard Français, woven at Gérardmer in the Vosges. Jacquard damask, so the pattern reads on both faces, matte on one, lit on the other. 100% cotton, 69 x 69 in, mitered corners, in a deep blue called Lapis.

For the sister who has just bought the long table. For the two of them, married in June. For the friend who cooks for ten and owns nothing to put under it.

The maker

Le Jacquard Français

Gérardmer, Vosges, France · Since 1888

Le Jacquard Français has been weaving at Gérardmer, in the Vosges, since 1888. Fifty-four jacquard looms, eighty people on the floor, and a mill that still does every stage on site, from spooling the yarn through to the finishing.

What they make is damask, which means the pattern reads on both faces of the cloth, matte on one side and lit on the other. It is why a piece of theirs looks like something even folded over a rail. The yarn is combed long-fibre cotton or linen, and they develop more than forty colours a year, each tested against light.

France named them an Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant in 2010, the designation for companies holding a rare industrial craft. There are not many weavers left doing this at this scale in Europe.
