Tablecloth material can refer to two different materials: LINEN and LACE. LINEN is a lightweight, strong fabric made from the fibers of the flax plant. It is often used in bedding, clothing, and tablecloths due to its durability and breathability. LACE is a delicate fabric made from yarn or thread in an open weblike pattern, often with floral designs. It is often used to decorate tablecloths and other linens for special occasions.
