Ekelund Table Runner - Julefrojd
Add a touch of Scandinavian holiday tradition to your home with the Julefrojd table runner from Ekelund. Designed by artist Betty Svensson, "Julefrojd" (Christmas Joy) captures the classic atmosphere of a Swedish Christmas. This versatile piece is perfect for daily use or festive gatherings, placed directly on your table or layered over a tablecloth.
Design & Pattern Details- Weave: The Julefrojd pattern is jacquard-woven directly into the fabric, not printed, for rich texture and durability.
- Color Palette: Features classic holiday colors like deep reds and pine green on a creamy, natural cotton background.
- Reversible: The runner is reversible, featuring an inverse of the front pattern for two distinct looks.
- Fabric: Woven from 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton, the fabric is soft yet substantial with a satisfying drape.
- Origin: Designed and woven in Ekelund's family mill in Horred, Sweden, continuing a textile tradition since 1692.
- Dimensions: The runner measures 14 inches by 48 inches (35 cm x 120 cm).
- Table Recommendations: Ideal for tables around 36 inches long (for a 6-inch overhang on each end) or on a 48-inch table for a flush fit.
- Washing Instructions: Machine wash warm (up to 60°C / 140°F). Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
- Drying: Hang dry or tumble dry low. Iron on high while slightly damp to restore its shape.
- Shrinkage: Expect 5-9% shrinkage after the first wash, a natural characteristic of organic cotton. The listed dimensions account for this.
