The origins of the table runner are rooted in practical and aesthetic necessity. In the Middle Ages, a time filled with grandeur and festivities, noble guests were not always the most adept at the table, often causing spills and splashes on the precious tablecloths. To address this challenge, the women responsible for laundering developed a solution to preserve the beauty and cleanliness of the tablecloths while adding an extra touch of sophistication.
This is how the table runner made its entrance into the halls of the grandest banquets. These wide, long, and narrow fabric ribbons were spread over the tablecloths, balancing functionality and aesthetics. The table runner quickly became a true work of textile art, with skilled women competing to design sophisticated patterns and delicate embroidery. Table runners thus gained symbolic value, reflecting the refinement and social status of their owners.
From generation to generation, the use of table runners continued, adapting to changes in fashion and customs. Noble materials such as silk and velvet mixed with cotton and linen, adding touches of luxury and texture to these table decoration accessories. New dimensions and patterns emerged, reflecting the aesthetic trends of each era, from contemporary minimalism to baroque opulence.
To determine the ideal size for your table runner, start by measuring the width and length of your table. Then add at least 30 centimeters and up to 60 centimeters to the length measurement to determine the sizes of table runners that will best fit your table. Also, consider the width of your table and choose a table runner whose width is about one-third of this dimension.
Table runners are generally available in standard widths such as 25, 30, 33, 35, or 38 centimeters, and standard lengths such as 130, 180, 230, and 270 centimeters. For example, if you have a dining table measuring 200 centimeters long and 100 centimeters wide, you will need a table runner with dimensions of 35 centimeters by 270 centimeters.
Table runners can be used in multiple ways and on different pieces of furniture, such as garden tables, coffee tables, side tables, or round tables.
When carefully selecting your table runner, make sure it blends harmoniously with the shade of your tablecloth. A good option is to opt for a light-colored tablecloth, combined with a table runner in a deeper shade of the same color. This subtle combination creates a delicate, refined contrast. It's also worth exploring the use of complementary colors for your tablecloth and runner. Complementary colors are those that are opposite each other on the color wheel. This bold approach can inject a dose of dynamism and originality into your table.
For example, if you opt for a tablecloth in shades of light blue, you might consider a table runner in shades of orange or coral to create a striking contrast. Similarly, a tablecloth in shades of green can be sublimated by a table runner in shades of pink or purple. The use of complementary colors requires a touch of daring, but if executed with finesse, it can give your table a very appealing visual impact.
Assembling a plain table runner with a pattern is a classic combination that always works. If you've planned a beautiful floral arrangement as a centerpiece, floral motifs on your table runner will complete the look. Just make sure that your floral arrangement is also in keeping with your table's theme and color palette.
The choice of material depends on the ambience you wish to create. For an informal, convivial setting, you can opt for light-colored materials. On the other hand, for formal events, choose linen or cotton tablecloths and table runners of superior quality, which will provide the perfect drape.

Great Product and Stellar Designers!
As a new business, it was such a help to have the designers help us with reproducing our logo in the size needed to render a crisp, clear logo on our craft table banner. We had lots of compliments at our first show this weekend. Thank you Banner Buzz team. It shipped quickly and met all of our needs. Keep up the great work. We will have more orders in the future!
