Product Insights
Officially licensed from the William Morris estate, these 16.5 cm quarter-folded luncheon napkins offer museum-quality heritage at a price below gallery counterparts ($7.50 vs. $7.95 at the National Gallery). The 1883 design, the first Morris pattern to add red and yellow to an indigo-discharge ground, is held in three museum collections. Made from responsibly sourced 3-ply German paper, they are soft, absorbent, tear-resistant, and affordably priced for everyday meals, hosting, seasonal decor, and host gifts. However, the paper colorway may differ from cloth items in the same pattern, and online orders risk lost packages or wrong items—ordering early or buying in-store is advised.

Love this pattern
Perfect for summer strawberry shortcake!
My product never arrived
I can’t tell you what I think of the napkins I ordered, because they have never arrived. The tracking system tells me they had just left Edmonton for several days. Yesterday, the site said, preparing for delivery, so when I received your request for an evaluation, I assume they must’ve arrived after I fell asleep last night, but I just went down and checked this morning, and there is nothing there. Please arrange to send me a refund. I have been a very faithful and enthusiastic Simons customer, and have bought other things from Simons which I really liked. I’m sure that it is the delivery company and not Simons itself. That is the problem, but I’m extremely disappointed, as these were intended as a gift for a friend whose birthday has now come and gone. Georgia Klass.

Elegant Splendor
These are so lovely with gold and green colors. Will be great at Christmas.
Printing is excellent
The print is very clear and crisp. These are in quite a different colourway than the cloth tablecloth that I bought at Simons with the same pattern; this was difficult to discern on the website
Beau dessin
J’’adore, différent de l’essuie-tout papier et plus propre. Merci pour ce nouveau concept.

Lovely napkins for special occasions
These are very attractive, high quality napkins to use for special occasions.
Paper napkins
My second time ordering. Lovely rich pattern
Matches the cork placemats perfectly
The placemats were tres expensive on the place that starts with an "A" and ends with a "zon". I got them at Simon's for far less, and yesterday noticed that they were even less expensive - If I had waited I could have saved $40! But the placemats will be a nice addition to that gift and at $7. 50 they were a good gift for the kids to buy.
