Right into the Middle Ages, tablecloths were used for
banquets or significant formal occasions , not for everyday use. Tablecloths possessed social importance
and implied high rank. With the highly
mechanized weaving techniques of the 21st century, elegant linens are no longer the
prerogative of high society.
Although figured damask was the linen of kings, you can
enjoy the subtle beauty of damask table linens with FLORA or IMPEROLINO by
Quagliotti of Italy.

goddess of flowers and spring, is voluptuous in white, ecru,
sage green, pearl grey, burgundy, dark green, navy blue and opulent gold.

With all these gorgeous table linens at our disposable,
let's not forget the importance of wine glasses and barware by EISCH of Germany.
Superbly blown and
brilliant with sparkle, EISCH wine glasses have won accolades from wine
experts such as Robert Parker and Ronn Wiegand for their ability to
release the wine's elegant bouquet and flavor. The process known as SENSIS
PLUS improves the taste of even moderately priced wines.
Superior Stemware with Sensis Plus by Eisch
Several fine EISCH collections such as SUPERIOR and
VINTEC are produced with the SENSIS PLUS technology. And for the
ultimate in elegance and purity of form, select JEUNESSE mouth blown stemware -
thin, sleek, and modern.

Vintec Stemware with Sensis Plus by Eisch
True oenophiles select EISCH lead free glassware
with a special glass for red wine, white wine, bordeaux, burgundy,
chardonnay, and champagne. Even mineral water and juices taste better with
EISCH. Gorgeous and practical, they are also dishwasher safe.
At Aiko Luxury Linens we suggest a comparative wine tasting.
Use a standard wine glass and a SENSIS PLUS wineglass of same or similar size.
Clean both glasses and rinse in clear water. The comparison of wines works best
when the bottle is opened right before tasting . Pour the same quantity of wine
in both glasses, and wait for a few minutes. First, smell the aroma of each,
then taste the two. You will be amazed by the difference!
And let’s not forget the handsome “no drip” decanters by EISCH which are graceful, do a superior job of aerating wine, and save your
lovely table linens from nasty wine stains.
The classically shaped BONAPARTE is a favorite, and makes a great gift.
Holidays are special at our house. They give us a chance to
express our love for family and friends, and give us the opportunity to
showcase our unique style. Setting a
beautiful table is like the overture to an opera or the opening credits of a
film. It sets the tone for the main event . Make it beautiful!
