Item Description

Picnic Basket

A picnic is only as good as the makeup of your basket. That's why we turned to our neighbors in New Hampshire who have been handcrafting baskets since 1854 to produce this sturdy, carry-it-all picnic basket. Woven from durable Appalachian white ash (the same hardwood used to make baseball bats), it's custom-fitted with a durable red and white gingham vinyl liner that protects it from spills and condensation, while easily wiping clean with a damp cloth.

Set Your Table With a Vermont Tradition Of Quality and Style: One 62x90" Tablecloth and Six 14" Napkins in Blue & Yellow

Woven into each Mountain Weave tablecloth is a rich history of self-reliance and ingenuity that harkens back to the homespun fabrics hand-loomed in the mountains of Vermont 150 years ago. Only instead of using whatever material happened to be on hand like our forebears, they’re made from the finest USA-grown cotton woven on state-of-the-art looms by master weavers here in New England.

The soft, sturdy fabric is then sent to our neighbors down the road in Dorset, Vermont where each tablecloth is individually cut and fringed by hand. The result is an attractive yet durable table covering that’s reversible so you can simply flip it over to hide those unsightly spills and extend time between washings.

For best results, machine wash cold and stretch the tablecloth while it’s line drying. Washing tightens the weave and softens the fabric for a thicker and more cushiony look and feel. Expect up to 10% shrinkage due to the 100% cotton weave; if the table linens are machine dried, you can expect increased shrinkage.
