Know before you buy
Measuring 8 inches square, this trivet is well-suited for standard saucepans and medium-sized serving dishes. If you frequently use extra-large stockpots or oversized roasting pans, you may find that the base of the cookware extends beyond the edges of the marble.
Marble is a porous natural stone, so it is best to wipe up spills immediately to prevent staining. While it does not require daily maintenance, you may want to avoid placing highly acidic foods directly on the surface to preserve the finish.
The trivet is crafted from solid, hand-carved marble. While the base is stable, we recommend placing it on a soft cloth or using felt pads if your tabletop surface is particularly delicate or prone to scratching.
Because this piece is hand-carved from natural stone, each trivet features unique veining and color variations. You should expect your specific piece to have its own distinct character, which is a hallmark of authentic marble.
Yes, the marble retains temperature well, making it an excellent base for serving chilled appetizers or cheese boards. Simply chill the trivet in the refrigerator before use to help keep your food cool while entertaining.
