Napkins

 

— in this case, cloth napkins are meant — cutlery in the form of relatively small (usually up to 40x40 cm) fabric products. Such products can differ not only in shape, size and general design, but also in terms of use. So, one of the most famous use cases is as an individual accessory: each person sitting at the table is given a personal napkin. You can use it to protect clothes from contamination while eating (by attaching a napkin to your chest or laying it on your knees), as well as to wipe your hands and lips after eating. Another variety is lining napkins, on which various dishes are placed; such products protect the table or tablecloth from contamination. There are also napkins designed for bread bins; they are cruciform.
