This a polyester tablecloth that looks like light-weight linen, so it does not have to be ironed, or maybe just touched up when it comes from the dryer.  Mine has medium purple, pale pink, and white daisy-like flowers embroidered on it with gold thread, with leaves that are a duller gold.  There are no washing and drying information that I could find  but I plan to wash it on gentle cycle.  It is made in China, but it almost impossible to find things that aren't these days.
