The thing is, having an extra piece of cutlery can lead to one serious problem.
Sign about an extra spoon or fork on the table
It is believed that a person who puts an extra piece of cutlery on the dinner table has “invited” someone to visit.
After all, if there are additional utensils, then someone has to use them.
Thus, the presence of another spoon or fork on the furniture can lead to the appearance of a visitor in the house.
