8-10 Seater 180 x 270 cms
Hand Block Printed 8–10 Seater Tablecloths (180 x 270 cm) for Elegant UK Dining Tables
There's something deeply satisfying about setting a table well — and the right tablecloth makes all the difference. Our 8 seater and 10 seater tablecloths, measuring 180 x 270 cm, are designed precisely for larger rectangular dining tables that are the heart of British family gatherings, dinner parties, and celebratory meals.
Handcrafted the Traditional Way
Every tablecloth in this collection is hand block printed by master craftsmen in Rajasthan, India — a region celebrated for over 500 years of textile artistry. Natural wooden blocks, hand-carved with intricate motifs, are pressed methodically onto 100% cotton fabric, creating patterns that carry a subtle, beautiful imperfection that no machine can replicate. This is slow, intentional making — the very opposite of fast fashion for your home. For UK homes that value both quality and story, these large cotton tablecloths offer something rare: genuine artisanal heritage woven into an everyday object.
The Right Fit for Large Dining Tables
At 180 x 270 cm, this rectangular tablecloth size is ideal for dining tables seating 8 to 10 guests comfortably. It provides a generous overhang on all sides — typically 25–30 cm — which is considered the ideal drop for a formal or casual dining setting. Whether you have a solid oak farmhouse table or a more contemporary extension table, this size fits beautifully without bunching or pulling short.
If your table is slightly smaller, you may find our 4–6 seater tablecloths (150 x 220 cm) a better fit. For even larger gatherings, explore our 10–12 seater tablecloths in 180 x 340 cm or 200 x 300 cm options.
Why Cotton? Why It Matters
We use 100% natural cotton — breathable, washable, and kind to the skin and environment. Unlike synthetic tablecloths that can feel clinical or stiff, cotton drapes naturally and softens beautifully with every wash. Our fabrics are free from harsh synthetic finishes, making them a thoughtful choice for households conscious of what goes on their table. Cotton also takes colour exceptionally well, which is why our hand block prints — whether bold florals, geometric stripes, or delicate Boota motifs — retain their vibrancy wash after wash.
Designed for Every Occasion
From relaxed weekend lunches to Christmas dinners and milestone celebrations, these tablecloths transition effortlessly across occasions. Pair them with our cotton napkins and table runners for a coordinated, considered table setting that feels curated rather than contrived. Add our Table Mats underneath place settings for an extra layer of protection and style.

FAQ's - 8-10 Seater 180 x 270 cms
For a rectangular dining table seating 8 to 10 people, a tablecloth measuring 180 x 270 cm is the recommended size. This allows for a standard overhang of approximately 25–30 cm on each side, which looks neat and drapes well without trailing on the floor.
These large cotton tablecloths are designed for both everyday use and special occasions. The 100% cotton fabric is machine washable, durable, and becomes softer with repeated washing — making it perfectly practical for daily dining as well as festive gatherings.
We recommend washing on a gentle or cool cycle (30°C) with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, as it can affect the natural dyes used in hand block printing. Iron on a medium heat while slightly damp for best results. The prints are set to retain colour with proper care.
Hand block printed cotton is dyed using techniques that are designed for longevity, but like all naturally dyed textiles, some minimal softening of colour over many washes is natural — and often considered part of the charm. Washing in cool water and avoiding direct prolonged sunlight when drying will help preserve the colours.
