A red and cream checkerboard with a sprig of red-berried holly and a single cut blood orange laid over it — a trattoria check dressed for Christmas.
Frequently asked questions
What is this design?
A red and cream checkerboard in the style of a classic trattoria cloth, with a sprig of red-berried holly and one cut blood orange laid over it. The deep red of the orange ties the fruit to the check.
Which pieces come in this design?
Table runner, placemat, cloth napkin, tea towel and apron. Everything currently made in this print is on this page.
Is it only for Christmas?
The holly makes it a Christmas print, but blood oranges are a winter fruit and the check suits any relaxed table, so it carries on through the winter.
What does it go with?
It is the quieter print at a Christmas table. A checked napkin sits well next to a lemon, poinsettia or olive runner, where a second scattered print would compete.
