First seen during the Victorian period, Menu holders became increasingly popular during the Edwardian period, predominantly due to the desire to emulate the King's love of exotic food, which would require explanation as the ingredients were often hard to recognise. As these were placed around the table, and not used to denote seating plans, sets larger than four are hard to find.
