When I was planning a dinner party some time ago, I wanted to get my table setting just right. I know it probably didn’t matter to my guests, but it mattered to me. So of course, I turned to the omnipotent and omniscient Google and found a wealth of literature on table settings, everything from the history to the various types. I even came across hundreds of books dedicated to the art of table settings. Crazy, huh? But through my finds, I found a very helpful infographic that will surely serve as my cheat sheet in the future.
