We welcome you to visit our two boutiques located in London. For full address details and opening hours, click here.

We are proud to work closely with many interior designers on bespoke projects for their clients. If you’re a design professional, we’d be delighted to support your work through a dedicated trade account. Please contact customerservice@summerillandbishop.com for more details.

Our table linens and tableware are handcrafted in small batches by artisans around the world, making each piece uniquely special. We offer a trade discount of 10%, applicable after an initial spend of £5,000. We understand that every project is different, so please do get in touch - we’d love to see how we can assist you.

With so many beautiful linens to explore, we understand that selecting the right size can feel overwhelming. Most of our designs are tailored for rectangular tables (which also work well on oval tables), and are available in three standard sizes:

​•​165 x 250 cm / 65 x 98 in

​•​165 x 300 cm / 65 x 118 in

​•​165 x 380 cm / 65 x 150 in

To find the right fit:

​Step 1: Measure the length and width of your table, then add 30–40 cm to each side (a total of 60–80 cm added to the overall dimensions). For example, a table measuring 100 x 180 cm pairs beautifully with our 165 x 250 cm tablecloth. Please be aware that if your table extends, it might be worth getting the next size up to have the tablecloth be versatile for larger gatherings or get two different sizes for all occasions! 

​Step 2: When choosing a tablecloth, think about your dining room décor as well as your favourite dinnerware. Your tablecloth is the harmonising note in this melody and so should unite all the elements, much like the perfect dinner party, where all the guests are brought together. If you’d like one of our experts help in building your tablescape, from colours to scent pairings, we’d be delighted to assist.


Yes, we do. Every table is unique, and we offer tablecloths in rectangular, round, round occasional, and square formats. We’re always happy to provide guidance to help you find the perfect fit.

In addition to our standard sizes, we also offer a bespoke, made-to-measure service—tailored precisely to your table and personal style. Our hand-painted collections—including Full Field, Cornice, Falling Flowers, Ink, Edge, Words, and Falling Stars—can all be customised to your specifications.

To begin your bespoke journey, simply contact our expert team at  +44 (0) 207 221 4566 or via email customerservice@summerillandbishop.com. We’ll guide you through every step.

All our linens are crafted from pure linen, combining beauty with practicality. They are machine washable and designed to maintain their elegance through everyday use.

We recommend washing at 40 to 60 degrees Celsius on a standard machine cycle, using your preferred detergent and conditioner. Please avoid cold washes or extended eco cycles.

For our hand-painted linens, never soak the fabric for more than ten minutes in water - whether hot or cold. For stains, apply soap directly to the fabric, leave for five minutes, then wash on a normal cycle. Avoid using stain removers or whitening products such as Vanish, as these can leave a pale residue and may cause the colours to fade or run.

Tumble drying is encouraged to achieve a beautifully soft, crushed linen look. We suggest drying at 70 degrees Celsius for a gentle finish or 90 degrees for a more pronounced texture.

For ironing, we recommend only pressing the edges to preserve the natural, relaxed character of the fabric, which adds exquisite texture to your tablescape.

Many of our tableware and homeware pieces are handcrafted in limited batches. While some items may occasionally be out of stock, we are pleased to offer a pre-order service to ensure your chosen pieces are reserved just for you.

You may also register for restock notifications, and we will contact you as soon as new stock arrives.

Remember, we are only a phone call +44 (0) 207 221 4566 or email away customerservice@summerillandbishop.com. Please do get in touch, and we will be delighted to assist.

Our collection of glassware is as elegant as it is varied, perfect for any occasion - from refined dinners to casual alfresco gatherings. Each piece is thoughtfully selected for its beauty and delicate craftsmanship. We recommend hand washing to preserve their pristine condition, as every modern heirloom deserves a little extra care.

Our table linens, tableware, and homeware are chosen for their timeless appeal rather than seasonal trends. As such, we do not hold seasonal sales, but we do offer a limited trade discount programme. Additionally, we host an annual sample sale and occasional promotional events throughout the year.
