Yellow Cross-Hatch Linen Napkin

Someone took a paintbrush to a perfectly respectable grid and got a little carried away.

The Yellow Cross-Hatch Napkin from Goldie Home brings a cheerful bit of artistic disorder to the dinner table. Designed from an original painting by founder Sara Roberts, its overlapping strokes of sunny yellow create a loose, almost gingham-like pattern, with subtle shifts in color and texture that give it the character of something pulled from an artist's sketchbook. Made in Portugal from 100% European linen, it has the natural texture and everyday practicality of a good cloth napkin, with enough personality to make even a hastily assembled dinner look like someone had a plan. And unlike an actual painting, you're encouraged to spill things on it.

About the Maker | Goldie Home

Goldie Home was founded in 2020 by Sara Roberts, a former fashion and publishing executive who rediscovered painting while spending an unusual amount of time around the family dinner table during the pandemic. Named after her grandmother Goldie, the New York-based brand turns Roberts' original artwork into expressive linen textiles made in Portugal, operating on the rather appealing theory that dinner should involve more color, more conversation, and considerably fewer rules about matching napkins.
