In a formal dinner setting, napkins are one of the first items your hosts will use. So, having a charming silver napkin ring provides a detailed impression of your dining etiquette and adds a little bit of sparkle to your table setting.
Silver napkin rings were invented by the European Bourgeoisie in the 18th-century and made of diverse materials like wood, silver, porcelain, pearl, and more. Howbeit, no sooner than the 19th-century, the concept, especially the use of silver napkin rings, had gone through all countries in the western world.
The increased wealth of the middle class at the time could be responsible for the surge in demand and popularity. Although, unlike other tableware, silver napkin rings were originally designed for hygiene rather than luxury. Napkins played a significant role in dinner etiquette.
