Trader Joe's Hand Crafted Felted Wool Trivet Set Of 2 Hot Pad. Condition is "New". Shipped with USPS First Class.
There’s nothing trivial about trivets. If you’ve got something hot (like a pot) and you want to set it down, a trivet is your best bet for protecting tabletops and counters. The thing is, trivets are kind of boring. Round or square pieces of neutral-colored wood or cork do little to inspire.
Skilled artisans in Nepal use a traditional felting process to create these woolen watchdogs of the worktop. 100% New Zealand sheep’s wool is wrapped into loose balls, moistened with warm water then hand-rolled before being laid out to dry in the sun. The combination of moisture and warmth works to compact and stiffen the wool fibers (like your accidentally washed woolen sweater). Once the individual wool balls are completely dry, 100 of them are handsewn together to make a 6.5-inch x 6.5-inch square. Finally, they’re tagged, boxed, and shipped to your neighborhood Trader Joe’s.
They are fully functional, serving to protect your countertops and table surfaces from the hot undersides of pots and pans. Plus, they’re so pretty, they wouldn’t look out of place decorating your kitchen walls or holiday tables! We’ve secured a limited quantity of these Felted Wool Trivets in vibrant colors
