Newport-Layton Table Runners
Table runners add elegance to your table, sideboard or
hutch. Runners come in a wide range of decorative fabrics,
colors and trims, from traditional jacquards to woven country
French designs.
Newport-Layton, the leader in the decorative-accessory
industry for 48 years, suggests purchasing runners in multiple
sets so that you can extend them across the width of your table
instead of along the length and use as placemats.
Newport-Layton runner fabrics range from heavyweight
100 percent cotton to 100 percent finely woven silks. All
products are handmade in the Portland, Oregon, factory to
the highest quality standards.

All Hampton Silversmiths flatware is warranted to be free
of defects in material and workmanship for 30 years from the
date of purchase, but you should nevertheless treat it as you
would any fine collectible.
This classic 65-piece set of flatware consists of 12 five-piece place settings and a five-piece hostess set, which includes
sugar spoon, butter knife, serving spoons and a serving fork.
Also offered is a six-piece entertainment set that's perfect
for large buffets and dinners. It has two buffet serving spoons,
buffet serving fork, buffet ladle, pierced buffet serving spoon
and buffet cake server.
A stainless steel knife-and-fork carving set, presented in a
latched wooden mahogany-stained box with dark blue velvet
lining, makes a wonderful holiday gift.
The silversmiths suggest: While this flatware is dishwasher safe,
its brilliance will dull over time, so if you want to maintain luminosity, wash it by hand with a non-abrasive sponge and mild
detergent. Also, be wary of any detergent that contains lemon, as
it can cause corrosion on stainless steel. Do not leave the pieces
soaking in water for a long time, and dry with a clean, soft towel.
Replacements and completer pieces can be ordered from
the company.
