"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

Not only are cloth napkins a more sustainable alternative to paper napkins, they elevate a table setting with very little effort. Fold white cotton napkins for a touch of elegance, midnight blue for a moody moment or bright red for a pop of color — the options are limitless. Whether you're hosting Christmas dinner, planning a wedding or shopping for everyday use, we've rounded up the best cloth napkins to buy for every aesthetic.

Many of these napkins are sold as set of four or 12, but some are sold individually if you'd prefer to mix and match when creating your perfect table arrangement. We've included a variety of the best fabrics — polyester tends to be the most affordable option (and is a great material for napkin folding), while linen and cotton napkins tend to offer better quality, a more textured look and a softer feel. Keep it simple with a solid shade, or consider one of the fringe, lace-lined or patterned cloth napkins our editors are loving.

Aside from style, these cloth napkins will save you in the long run (most are machine washable and can be used over and over). As you scroll, you'll notice we've noted the size and material of each pick, plus our favorite features about each item — whether that be a wrinkle-free quality, option for personalization or impressive softness. Now, start shopping to find the perfect cloth napkin to complete your dining room design, just in time for decorating your holiday table.
