lace tablecloth

Grandmother's dining linens

A lace tablecloth is a decorative table covering made from lace—an openwork fabric with intricate patterns created by looping, twisting, or knitting thread.

Lace tablecloths are associated with formal dining and traditional décor, often reserved for special occasions or displayed as heirlooms: She spread her grandmother's lace tablecloth for Thanksgiving dinner.
