Care, Cleaning & Maintenance

To preserve the vibrant terrazzo finish and the integrity of the cork base, follow these strict maintenance rules:

• Wiping: Gently wipe the surface clean using only a damp cloth after use.

• No Submerging: Do not submerge the trivet in water or place it under a running faucet, as this can degrade the cork backing.

• Dishwasher Warning: This item is not dishwasher safe.

Frequently Asked Questions (People Also Ask)

What temperatures can the terrazzo heat pad withstand?

While concrete is naturally highly heat-resistant, it is designed specifically for everyday kitchen cookware coming straight from the stove or oven, such as cast iron pans, baking sheets, and serving dishes. The waffle grooves actively help disperse this heat to protect your table.

Will the rough concrete scratch my wooden dining table?

No, your surfaces are completely safe. The bottom of this handmade hot pot holder features a full-coverage, soft cork base that prevents any scratching, scuffing, or slipping on wood, glass, or marble counters.

Are the colors and patterns identical on every trivet?

No. Because these are handcrafted in small batches using natural concrete and recycled glass aggregate, the integral color and speckled finish will slightly vary. This natural variation means your piece is a completely unique work of functional art.
