Red
A bold, striking color suited to romantic dinners and holiday gatherings, shown in the Red velvet runner, with the velvet texture softening red's intensity slightly compared to a flat, glossy fabric.
Material and Care
All colors in this collection are made from the same velvet fabric at approximately 190-200 GSM, giving the runner enough weight to hold its shape without draping too stiffly. Velvet needs gentler handling than a machine-washable fabric like polyester: spot clean minor marks promptly, and use professional dry cleaning for a full clean rather than machine washing, which can flatten or damage the pile over time. Store runners flat or loosely rolled rather than tightly folded to help the texture hold its shape between uses.
How to Style Velvet Table Runners
A few ways to build the full tablescape around a velvet runner:
- Layer the runner over a solid tablecloth for contrast in both color and texture, since velvet's texture reads best against a flatter, simpler base fabric rather than another heavily textured cloth
- Coordinate the runner's color with your chair linens so the seating and tabletop feel like part of the same design
- Fold napkins in a complementary or contrasting shade and set them on top of a charger plate for a finished, layered place setting
- For a head table or focal point, extend the same velvet color upward with a cascade swag drape panel behind the table, carrying the texture from the tabletop into the backdrop
Complete Your Tablescape
A velvet runner is usually the accent piece, not the whole story. Pair your chosen color with a coordinating tablecloth, chair linens, and napkins to carry the same palette through every part of the table, or add a matching drape panel nearby if you want the color to extend beyond the tabletop.

Frequently Asked Questions
What occasions are velvet table runners best suited for?
Velvet runners work for weddings, holiday gatherings, formal dinners, and casual celebrations alike. The texture and richer appearance suit both everyday use and special events.
How do I style a velvet runner with my existing table linens?
Velvet runners generally look best layered over a solid tablecloth, which creates contrast in both color and texture. Pairing with neutral linens gives a refined, understated look, while bolder linen colors make the runner more of a focal point.
Are velvet table runners machine washable?
No. Spot clean minor marks and use professional dry cleaning for a full clean, since machine washing can flatten or damage the velvet pile over repeated washes.
What size is a velvet table runner?
Each runner measures approximately 13" wide by 108" long, sold individually.
Can I mix velvet runners with other fabric tablecloths?
Yes. Velvet pairs well with polyester, satin, or lamour satin tablecloths, since the contrast in texture, smooth fabric underneath and plush velvet on top, is part of what makes the runner stand out.
How many colors does this collection offer?
This page highlights 10 colors, Emerald Green, Black, Navy Blue, Beige, Baby Blue, Purple, Ivory, Fuchsia, Rust, and Red, though additional shades may be available in the full collection.
Why does my table need a runner if I already have a tablecloth?
A runner adds a second layer of color and texture down the center of the table, drawing the eye toward the centerpiece and place settings, without requiring a full tablecloth change to update the look for a different event or season.
