What is a treated or coated fabric?
It is a material that has had one of the following treatments so it becomes water repellent and stain resistant: its main usage is tablecloth but can also be used to cover seats, benches, make tote bags, aprons. etc...

1. Acrylic coating (NOT Plastic)
A permanent coating that makes the fabric water repellent and stain resistant.
For example an acrylic coated tablecloth can be wiped multiple times with a wet cloth and once you start seeing marks,
you can wash it in the washing machine as a regular color cotton, best not to put it in the dryer though manufacturers say they can be put in dryers on lowest most delicate cycle.
Can be ironed on the back.

Are these products made in China?
No.
Most of our products are made in France, few are made in neighboring countries like Italy as there is a great deal of collaboration especially in the printing industry between France and Italy.
As examples, our Provence Cotton fabrics, tablelinens, toiles, other various fabrics, soaps, perfumes, pottery, new China, Antiques are all made in France.
Will the Colors of a product seen on my computer monitor be the same once I see it after order is received?
All computer monitors reproduce colors in a different way. We try to show in the most faithful way the true colors but it can not be 100% exact. That is why for Fabrics by the yard, we offer the service of Swatch Orders so you can see for a minimal $ amount the colors of a fabric before ordering yardage.

How to read Stock Status?

In Stock: we have it in Stock but in some instances it can take up to 24 hours for inventory status to be updated as some orders can be placed late at night for example in California which is middle of the night for Ohio so Inventory Status then would only be updated next day Eastern Time.

Out of Stock: we are waiting to learn from supplier if the same product can be re-ordered.

Sold out: No longer available. Sometimes we leave such a product up on the web site still marked SOLD OUT as they might be back in production at a later time. For example, a fabric pattern can be discontinued by the manufacturer out of the blue but 6 months or a year later the same manufacturer might decide to produce a new batch.

In Transit:
product has been ordered and is in the process of being shipped or is on its way to us from France.

How can I get to know the value of a piece of French pottery I got at a yard sale or from my grand mother?

we offer a service of appraisals click here for info on how to get French pottery appraised.
We will not answer emails requesting free info nor give any info over the phone.

Ready made Tablecloths hemmed or not hemmed?
The ready made cotton tablecloths we import from France are hemmed with a rolled edge and not a bias tape.

Oh customers will be charged 6.5% Sales Tax.
Prices subject to change and do not include shipping from Ohio to your final destination.
