Napkin Folding
Napkin folding
is a type of decorative folding done
with a napkin. It can be done as art
or as a hobby. Napkin folding is most
commonly encountered as a table
decoration in fancy restaurants.
History of Napkin Folding
• The use of the napkin in Europe began in 1400 on the
tables of royalty, where they started to use napkins
made from warm or even perfumed cloth.

• At the beginning of the 1800s, napkins became part of


the bourgeois lifestyle, mostly to protect the
sumptuous dresses of the period during meals. This is
the era when the folding of napkins as decoration for
dining tables began. The art really took off around 1880
with the incoming prosperity of the Industrial
Revolution.
