A modern classic, we just can't get enough of! Why shouldn't your table look beautiful even before the food is out? 

Made in USA of Corian, with a natural cork backer, these trivets are perfect for use with your hot or cold items, keeping sweating pitchers, salads, and that holiday meal from marring your table. The Corian feels smooth and buttery to the touch. It may sound strange, but we promise you won't stop touching it!

A fantastic gift for someone you love, and a wedding gift no one would scoff at. Each trivet is cut in intersecting grooves, creating scallop, reminiscent of a moiré pattern.  

The elongated trivets are generously sized and will easily hold a pot roast or holiday turkey. Stop doubling up on your trivets and use one trivet per dish. We like using these pieces to serve several sides as well.

- Kate Casey, founder and  principal, Peg Woodworking
