Review on Talvania Cloth Dinner Napkins Luxuriously by Scott Koeck

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very Dark Olive Green

I bought these napkins for everyday use, I have used cloth napkins for many years to save paper. I've found that 100% polyester wipes don't absorb moisture and 100% cotton wipes wrinkle a lot, so it's a good compromise. After washing and taking them out of the dryer (and even then not immediately!) they wrinkle a bit, but roll up for everyday use. The color is much darker green than the photos which is disappointing. If you look at the photos under this colored napkin, they look as if they are displayed in the settings of the square in front of the window where they stand. They are much darker than the other photos, actually a different shade. I'll keep them as they're not for the specific case where a match is important, but if I needed them to get something together I'd probably return them. I also hated the white labels sewn into each napkin. I have never bought napkins with a sewn-in label. It pops right out when you wash and fold them. I carefully cut off the label and they look much better although the seam shows where the label was attached. Please, Talvania, just take off the tag! I always buy dark napkins because I find light ones have too many stains. Since they are very dark, they should hide stains well. Delivered quickly and in good condition. Yes they are not all perfectly square but for my use they are sufficient.
