Canterbury
A term now applied to a stand with divisions for holding sheet music (though more often used for magazines and newspapers) it was originally said to have been a type of dumb waiter invented by an Archbishop of Canterbury - Sheraton describes it as ‘made to stand by a table at supper, with a circular end, and three partitions crosswise to hold knives, forks and plates at that end which is made circular on purpose’.
