Materials and Fabric
The word "linen" in this collection refers to table linens as a product category, not linen fiber. Every item here is made of polyester.
- Solid red tablecloths and overlays: 100% polyester. The round tablecloths have a fabric weight of approximately 200 GSM, and the 108" round is seamless.
- Red and white gingham: 100% polyester with a seamless construction, in a lighter-weight fabric suited to casual and outdoor settings.
- What GSM means: GSM stands for grams per square meter. A higher number means a thicker, heavier fabric, which affects how opaque the cloth looks and how it drapes over the table edge.
- How this compares to economy polyester: CV Linens™ also sells an economy polyester line at approximately 125 to 130 GSM. It's thinner and often chosen for one-time events or as a base layer under an overlay. The approximately 200 GSM rounds in this collection are the heavier option.
- Why polyester for events: Polyester can be machine washed and dried, which makes it practical for linens that will be reused across multiple events.
- Other red materials: If you want a fitted spandex look, the sheen of taffeta, or a smooth scuba finish, browse the full range of red tablecloths in other fabrics.

Red Round Tablecloths
The three round sizes differ mainly in how far the fabric falls.
- 108" Red Round Polyester Tablecloth: Stops short of the floor on a 60" table, which keeps the fabric clear of guests' feet and chair legs. A good fit for dinners, buffets, and home gatherings where a full-length drape isn't needed.
- 120" Red Round Polyester Tablecloth: Reaches the floor on a 60" round table, the most common size for seated wedding and banquet guest tables. Choose this one when you want a formal, floor-length look.
- 132" Red Round Polyester Tablecloth: Reaches the floor on a larger 72" round table, which typically seats more guests per table.
Red Rectangular and Oblong Tablecloths
Choose between partial coverage and floor-length coverage based on how the table will be used.
- 60" x 120" Red Rectangular Polyester Tablecloth: Covers the top and part of the sides on both 6 ft and 8 ft banquet tables. Practical for registration tables, casual parties, and setups where a floor-length cloth would get in the way.
- 90" x 132" Red Rectangular Oblong Polyester Tablecloth: Reaches the floor on all sides of a 6 ft table, hiding table legs and anything stored underneath.
- 90" x 156" Red Rectangular Oblong Polyester Tablecloth: Reaches the floor on all sides of an 8 ft table. A common choice for head tables, buffet lines, and dessert tables.
Red Square Overlays
Square overlays go on top of a base tablecloth. A red square turned diagonally over a white or ivory round cloth adds color without committing the whole table to red, which helps when red is an accent in a wider palette.
- 72" x 72" Red Polyester Square Overlay: Suits 60" round guest tables and larger square tables when layered over a base cloth.
- 54" x 54" Red Polyester Square Overlay: Better for smaller tables, such as cocktail or card tables, or for a lighter touch of color over a base cloth.
Red Gingham Tablecloths
Red and white gingham reads as casual, so it works best for picnics, barn weddings, barbecues, and country-themed parties rather than formal receptions.
- 60" x 120" Red and White Gingham Rectangular Tablecloth: Fits 6 ft and 8 ft banquet tables with the same partial drop as the solid 60" x 120".
- 90" x 90" Red and White Gingham Square Tablecloth: Works as a tablecloth for small round, square, or card tables, or as an overlay on a solid base cloth.
Building a Table Around Red Linens
Red is a strong base color, so most setups balance it with one or two neutral or metallic elements. Gold, black, and white are the most reliable pairings.
- Add a runner: Gold or black table runners stand out clearly against red, while a matching red runner gives a quieter, tonal look.
- Frame each seat: A gold or silver charger from the charger plates collection frames the dinner plate and breaks up the red surface.
- Choose napkins: Napkins in white or ivory keep the table bright, and blush adds a softer tone.
- Coordinate the chairs: Match chair linens to either the tablecloth or the runner so the room reads as one design.
- Finish the center: Pick centerpieces in a metallic finish that repeats the charger or runner color.
- Mix colors across tables: If other tables at the same event need different colors, browse the full tablecloths collection.
Care and Handling
- Machine wash and dry the red polyester linens in this collection.
- Do not use bleach, since it can discolor the fabric.
- Wash a few tablecloths at a time rather than packing the machine, which helps prevent creases from setting in.
- Remove linens from the dryer promptly and fold or hang them to reduce wrinkles before your next event.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size red tablecloth do I need for a 60" round table?
Choose the 120" round for a floor-length look or the 108" round for a shorter drop that ends about 6" above the floor on a standard 30" high table. The 72" x 72" square overlay can be layered on top of either.
What size tablecloth fits an 8 ft banquet table?
For full floor-length coverage, use the 90" x 156" oblong. For a shorter drape, the 60" x 120" rectangle gives a 15" drop on the long sides and a 12" drop on the ends.
What is the difference between a rectangular and an oblong tablecloth?
Both fit rectangular tables. The 60" x 120" rectangle gives partial coverage, while the 90" x 132" and 90" x 156" oblongs are sized to reach the floor on 6 ft and 8 ft tables.
Can I use the red square overlays on round tables?
Yes. Square overlays are commonly placed over a round base tablecloth, either straight or turned diagonally, to add a second color or layer.
Are these tablecloths made of linen fabric?
No. "Linen" here means table linens in general. All tablecloths and overlays in this collection are 100% polyester, including the red and white gingham.
How should I wash red polyester tablecloths?
Machine wash and dry them, and avoid bleach. Washing a few at a time helps prevent permanent creases.
Will the red match other red items from CV Linens™?
Red is one of several red shades CV Linens™ offers, alongside colors such as apple red and burgundy. If an exact match matters, order a swatch book to compare shades before buying in quantity.
