RARE, Authentic Great White Fleet, WWI, WWII, Korea and Vietnam Era Vintage United States Navy Issued White-on-White antique Heavy White-on-White Damask Banquet Size Linen US Navy Tablecloths and Vintage Linen: US Navy Napkins, RARE U.S. Navy Cocktail Napkins and Silverplate Navy Napkin Rings.

USN Nautical Table Linens were used for every day Officer Wardroom dining, or the proper protocol for table linens for formal Military and Navy Dining-In Ceremonies! Only one word can describe these table linens - Stunning!

These authentic U.S. Navy Tablecloths, US Navy Napkins, vintage heavy damask white-on-whit linen nautical tablecloths and nautical napkins were used aboard ship and shore from the early 1900's thru 1960's, with most being actually produced prior to and during WW2 and are in excellent condition with many years of more use. Made from the best linen cloth, they are stunningly beautiful heavy damask white-on-white table linens and were used exclusively as the US Navy's official dining-in linen from the smallest Officer's Wardroom aboard a WWII Destroyer Escort sailing in the South Pacific, to a very formal "Dining-in" hosted by the Chief of Naval Operations or Secretary of the Navy.

Each U.S. Navy Tablecloth and vintage Navy Napkin is in an elegant and tastefully distinctive nautical pattern and nautical decor with twisted Naval rope, 5 pointed stars, and the Department of the Navy seal with Naval Anchor. U.S. Naval Academy USNA Ivory Lace Tablecloths are also available here at The Pirate's Lair, and are perfect graduation or promotion gifts for the Midshipman.

The above left photo shows a banquet size 132" (11') U.S. Navy tablecloth with twisted Naval rope and 5 pointed stars vertically the full length, with U.S.NAVY in 1" block letters horizontally every 3'. All china, silverware, and serving dishes shown are U.S. Navy issued and can also be purchased at The Pirate's Lair.

The photo on the right shows the typical Department of the Navy Seal used on most of the Navy's tablecloths, dinner napkins, and cocktail napkins. The Navy Seal consists of a circle with the words "United States of America" across the top and "Department of the Navy" on the bottom. An Eagle and shield with 13 stars above its head (representing the original 13 colonies), and clutching the fluked Navy Anchor.

It just doesn't get much more authentic than this! Note the original shipboard laundry identification tag and markings found on this particular nautical tablecloth in the upper left hand corner near the seam, exactly as how it was done aboard ship in the 1940's! All US Navy tablecloths and U.S. Navy napkins will come cleaned, some professionally cleaned and pressed. NOTE the beautiful and elegant nautical design of thick and thin twisted rope in the photo to the right in a nautical decor. Though nautical patterns differ slightly this is similar to the twisted rope found on all U.S. Navy issued nautical table linen be it nautical tablecloths, nautical dinner napkins or nautical cocktail napkins.

If you are looking to present a formal dining table as what was used in the 1930's to 1940's in US Navy Wardroom's, or the discerning type seeking that rare combination of very unique but subtle, understated yet stunningly elegant nautical decor and nautical theme for your nautical table setting then you won't find any better by using authentic vintage U.S. Navy table linens!

The photo to the right also illustrates some of the original and authentic silverplate US Navy Napkin Rings which we have available. They came from an aircraft carrier's wardroom mess and many are already inscribed with the position or title! As you can see the one to the right is inscribed "Commanding Officer", see below for more details and titles. We also have plain uninscribed US Navy Napkin Rings as well.

The look and feel of the seating arrangement seen above is what could have commonly been found in an at-sea Captain's Cabin on a battleship, or an Officer's Wardroom on heavy cruisers during WW2.

The nautical tablecloths, nautical napkins, table linens, china, silverware and the silver serving dishes are ALL United States Navy issue! The dining table is completely set in authentic 60+ year old U.S. Navy tableware which has the traditonal Navy Fouled Anchor design either glazed into the china or engraved in the silverware.
