For general place settings, the napkin is usually place on the left of the plate. This works with cloth or in more informal settings paper napkins.

In some settings a cloth napkin is decoratively folded and placed in a glass, or directly in front of the plate. It is also acceptably for it to be folded neatly and placed on the plate.

Yes. You have the fork ( close to the plate), knife, and then spoon. The napkin can go under these things, but some people now also put it on the plate/charger combination. Use a napkin ring, to the extreme right of the plate. Some people find getting the napkin out from under utensils a bit tricky.


What about a napkin folded almost like a triangle?

* In the US, this is merely table art. It is done by folding the napkin in this manner. The napkin must already be folded in quarters after ironing. Next fold it into the triangle by folding the open ends of the square to the opposite end. Then sit the napkin up by folding the opposite corners of the long side of the triangle together and creasing gently with the fingers. This napkin should stand on the plate or table independently by opening the long side slightly and standing that edge to the user. * If you are having a fancy dinner party you can also twist the napkin and put it in the wine class with the top sticking out.
