Shop Burgundy Napkins by Material
Polyester
Made from 100% polyester, the polyester napkin is the most durable and budget-friendly fabric in the collection. It holds up well to repeated washing, making it a practical choice for frequent events or rental use.
Satin
A smooth fabric with a light sheen that catches candlelight and metallic accents well, making satin napkins the common choice for weddings and evening events. It shows creasing more readily than polyester, so it benefits from a quick steam before use.
Lamour Satin
Combining the durability of polyester with a softer, more muted sheen than standard satin, the lamour satin napkin is giving a sleeker finish without the higher shine.
Velvet
A plush, textured fabric that adds richness and visual depth, suited to formal occasions and fall or winter events where a heavier fabric feels appropriate. Velvet napkins may need light steaming before use to release any wrinkles from folding or storage.
Taffeta
The taffeta napkins have a crisp, structured fabric that holds a fold sharply, useful for tailored, precise napkin designs like a pointed fan or standing fold.
French Toile
Unlike the solid-color fabrics above, this option carries a printed floral toile pattern in burgundy on a white base, sold in packs of 5 rather than as a single piece. It's a way to bring pattern into a burgundy tablescape without switching to an entirely different color palette, and it pairs well with solid burgundy or ivory tablecloths as a contrast rather than a match.
Why Order Burgundy Napkins in Bulk
Ordering in bulk keeps color, size, and finish consistent across every table, which matters more as guest counts grow. It also means having extras on hand for a last-minute headcount change or for replacing a napkin damaged during setup or service, without having to place a rush order mid-event.
Styling Ideas
Fold burgundy napkins neatly for a formal table, or lay them flat under the plate for a more relaxed, modern look. Pair with gold charger plates and ivory tablecloths for a warm, classic setup, or mix with blush and champagne tones for a softer, romantic pairing. For outdoor or rustic themes, burgundy works well against natural wood, greenery, and neutral linens, finished with a napkin ring, ribbon, or small floral accent.
How to Style with the Rest of Your Table
A few ways to build out the full tablescape:
- Pair your burgundy napkin fabric with a coordinating tablecloth, either a lighter neutral for contrast or a matching burgundy tone for a monochromatic look
- Extend the same color to the seating with chair linens in burgundy or a complementary shade, so the color carries from the table to the chairs
- Keep the fabric choice consistent with the formality of the event, polyester or satin for everyday and corporate use, velvet or sequin for weddings and evening receptions
Care Instructions
- Wash: Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent; avoid bleach
- Dry: Tumble dry on low or hang to air dry
- Finish: Lightly iron or steam as needed, particularly for velvet and taffeta
Complete Your Burgundy Tablescape

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these napkins reusable?
Yes. All fabrics in this collection are designed for multiple washes and hold their color and shape when cared for properly, making them a reliable choice for event planners, caterers, and venues hosting frequent events.
Can I mix materials or colors in one order?
Yes. Combining fabrics, such as satin and velvet, or pairing burgundy with complementary shades, is a common way to add texture and dimension across different tables at the same event.
Do these napkins wrinkle easily?
Polyester and satin resist wrinkles well. Velvet and taffeta may need light steaming before use. Storing napkins folded neatly rather than balled up helps minimize creases and speeds up event-day prep.
Are these napkins suitable for professional or commercial use?
Yes. Their durability and straightforward care make them a practical fit for restaurants, event venues, and rental companies, not just one-time personal events.
What table sizes do these napkins fit best?
The 20" x 20" size is standard for most dining setups and works with both round and rectangular tables, large enough for decorative folds while still fitting neatly at each place setting.
Which burgundy fabric is easiest to maintain for repeated events?
Polyester and satin are the easiest to maintain, since both are wrinkle-resistant and machine washable without the extra steaming that velvet or taffeta typically need.
Can I find matching tablecloths and chair linens in burgundy?
Yes. Burgundy is available across the broader tablecloths and chair linens collections in coordinating fabrics, making it possible to match the napkin color throughout the full table setting.
