White Linen Table Runner with Openwork

This white linen table runner is a centenary piece handcrafted in Portugal using two traditional techniques — bobbin lace and openwork embroidery.
Each detail reflects the dedication of Portuguese artisans and the delicate precision that has defined the country’s textile heritage for centuries.

Made from 100% natural linen, the runner balances strength and lightness, with its openwork patterns allowing sunlight to softly filter through the fabric. The lace edges are woven by hand with wooden bobbins, creating a subtle texture that enhances its timeless beauty.

Originally crafted to adorn tables during special family gatherings, this white linen table runner continues to bring meaning to the modern home — blending tradition, sustainability, and craftsmanship in every thread. Each stitch is slightly unique, revealing the natural rhythm of handmade work and the authenticity of true artisanal creation.

Ideal for dining tables, consoles, or as a decorative layer over another cloth, this piece embodies Dalila’s philosophy: to cherish what endures, to honor the craft, and to live surrounded by pieces with memory and soul.
