Bright Settings Oval Tablecloths Are Shaped like Racetracks or Capsules
The actual shape of our oval tablecloths requires some clarification—they’re shaped like racetracks (or capsules). They are straight on the sides and rounded at the ends. If you added leaves to the center of a round table, it would push half circles out to each end. That’s what our oval tablecloths look like (see image on the left below).
We can provide you with an egg shape tablecloth (image on the right above). But you can’t order it from this website. You have to call us so we can talk you through how to create a template of your table to send to us.
How to Measure Your Table for an Oval Tablecloth
To determine the size of your oval tablecloth you need to know the dimensions of your table and how much you want the tablecloth to hang off the table (the drop). We recommend drops of 8 to 12 inches, but it’s really matter of personal preference. To determine your cloth size, add the drop X 2 to each dimension of your table like in the example below.
Example: Oval table size 30"W x 72"L, and the desired drop is 12" OVAL TABLECLOTH SIZE = 54" X 96" oval
Remember, our standard oval is shaped like a racetrack. If your oval is more "eggshaped" and you want the drop to be exact, you need to send a template of the table top for us to use as a pattern. Call 800-327-6025 M-F 8:30AM-5PM ET if you have any questions.
