Editorial Reviews Amazon.com Review: Lenox's Laurel Leaf linen pattern is a beautiful answer to a wide variety of table-setting needs. A full range of tablecloths, runners, placemats, and napkins, the line is lovely enough to elevate simple dishes yet doesn't compete with ornate dinnerware. It is available in a range of rich colors for year-round use and stylish mixing and matching, and the design combines the organic shape of the laurel leaf with an overall geometric pattern. Sewn from luxurious woven damask made of 70 percent cotton and 30 percent polyester, Laurel Leaf has an subtle shimmer to underscore its saturated hues. Each item is machine-washable, safe in the dryer, colorfast, and wrinkle-resistant. --Emily Bedard
Customer Reviews Average rating - 3.0
Rating - 3 Date: 2007-11-14 Content: For a year, I have had a set of Lenox laurel leaf table linens in platinum (actually a little paler than in the picture above), and my feelings are mixed about them. They're certainly lovely and elegant, and stains come out easily after pretreatment and washing--even red wine and tomato sauces.
The only problem is that some of the placemats wind up wrinkled after washing, even when following the directions to wash but not tumble-dry them. It's as if the stiff facing inside them gets loose and bunched up or pleated, and no amount of ironing will fix them. Only half of the 12 that I started with are in their original shape, thanks to spot-washing and good luck.
So if you want elegant, not-too-expensive table linens, the Lenox laurel leaf napkins and tablecloths are great. I would just avoid the placemats until they are (hopefully) more reliably constructed. Summary: I would stick with the napkins and tablecloths
