You lay a pristine white tablecloth to dress the table for party and someone spills a glass of wine on it. Generally, you would feel embarrassed by the mess but you might as well feel proud to show off if you have a In Vino Veritas tablecloth.

The In Vino Veritas white tablecloth looks similar to any other cloth but once red wine is spilt on it, rather than creating a smear, it creates interesting patterns. Thus, saving you from all the embarrassment. The modern art patterns are classy and remains till the time it is washed.

To remove the patterns from In Vino Veritas tablecloth and get back the white colour, you need to soak it in cold water with 1kg salt. The Vino Veritas can be used for long till the time it is maintained. The patterns should be washed off within two hours of time.

Manager of Selfridges, Louise Sellwood, says, “The days of the ultimate dinner party faux pas are over. The new In Vino Veritas tablecloth means that spilling a glass of red wine can be an artistic event rather than the cause of red faces. However, whilst the occasional spill will be entertaining, we do hope that the Chateau Petrus won''t be splashed around willy nilly."

So, the next time someone spills red wine on your tablecloth, there is no need to panic. You can rather, flaunt the magical patterns created on your tablecloth.
