Know before you buy
The hot pad is infused with real spices that release their fragrance when warmed. Simply place a hot dish, pot, or kettle on the pad to trigger the scent.
Yes, at one inch thick, this trivet provides a substantial barrier between your hot cookware and delicate surfaces like wood or glass, effectively preventing heat damage.
Because the fabric is infused with spices, it is best to spot clean the surface with a damp cloth. Submerging or machine washing the pad may diminish the scent infusion and affect the structural integrity of the padding.
The scent is designed to be subtle and inviting rather than overwhelming. It is most noticeable when a hot item is placed on the pad and dissipates as the pad cools down.
While the design features winter greenery and a holiday verse, the functional benefits of the thick, heat-resistant padding make it useful for any hot serving needs throughout the colder months.
