The Victorian-era dinner party reflected the values of a refined society, with an emphasis on etiquette and proper conduct. Hosting a luncheonwith a set like thisprovided the opportunity for a Victorian woman to showcase her credentials in etiquette because a successfully planned and executed event helped her assert her position in upper class society. At the heart of the luncheonwas the properly set Victorian table, with individual place settings.
