Hot for pot.
This octagonal star trivet was laser-cut from sustainable walnut wood by Michigan artist Fred Arndt. We love its careful precision and the recurring motif of snowflakes within the design. It’ll keep your tabletop safe from a hot pot, but we also think it would look great while off-duty, hanging in the kitchen or propped up on a bookshelf.

Pretty trivet to look at in my kitchen.
Very nice to look at it. Very good quality. I dunno if it is safe for laminated surface bec its bit too thin to hold heat. I will play it safe.
