Velvet table runner — rich, plush, quietly luxe

Velvet is instant luxury on a table. This plush velvet runner has a deep, light-catching pile that shifts tone as it moves — rich, soft and undeniably special. It’s the runner for celebrations, festive tables and formal dinners, where its sheen makes candlelight, glassware and gold accents glow.

How to style a velvet table runner

Drape it down the centre of a dark wood table for a moody, opulent look, or use a jewel tone to anchor a festive setting. Velvet reads elegant and grown-up — a step up from everyday linen for the moments that matter.

Choosing the size

Add 12 inches to your table length for a balanced overhang. Available in 90 inch, 108 inch and 120 inch for larger tables and 36 inch for smaller ones. Suits round and oval tables too.
