A Closer Look at Trivets - From Traditional to Modern Ones

Article Category: Advice

Traditionally, trivets are defined as metals with three legs that are used as a base for hot pots or even plates. They are primarily used to protect a table or a surface from the heat emitting from the hot pots or plates. The short legs provide ample space between the surface of the table and the surface beneath any object that emits heat.

However, this particular kitchenware has also evolved in terms of decorations and purpose. Although they are mainly known for their insulating properties, they have now become among the favorite items to collect by kitchen collectors. There are ancient versions that pride themselves on of elaborate ironwork and appear more decorative than functional.

Circular trivets that come from European countries often have scrollwork, heart shapes, and spokes and are often hand-painted. As compared to the ones obtained anywhere else, the legs of those produced in Europe are shorter. They may also have short handles which allow them to be moved or positioned easily. Collectors of Europe-made stands, usually, make use of the handles a mean to hang this kitchenware on walls as decoration.

Before 19th century, ancient trivets were made from metals. Horseshoe-shaped ones were common during this era. Cast-iron was also one of the most common materials in developing these kitchen tools. In the early days, they were equipped with longer handles which enable the users to tilt then while were placed around a furnace to facilitate cooking.

Around 1950s, the use of electric trivets came about and paved way for the creation of electric stoves. The shape and size were based on regular pots and kettles. Eventually, they were also used for supporting rectangular pans or plates.

Tile versions are now becoming increasingly popular. Manufacturers of this type of kitchenware are usually those producing stoneware. Floral patterns are among their most commonly sought design. As opposed to the traditional ones with legs, they do not have legs but hold a high level of insulating property. Therefore, pots or kettles, teapots, and skillets can be placed directly on top of each tile.

They are also sometimes mistaken to coasters. Coasters are smaller in size and are basically used to protect the table or table cover from moist or marks that can be left by glasses, bottles, or cups. Nevertheless, coasters nowadays also bear intricate designs and have become highly collectible.

Kitchen collectors also often have at least a couple of these with raised edges. As the name suggests, they have edges raised which create beautiful frames to whatever item is placed on top of them. These are also highly ornamental. Aside from being hand-painted, some are skillfully glazed while others are heavily decorated using transferware methods.

Trivets are a functional item that can be particularly useful to those who enjoy some coffee or tea time in the afternoon. Whether ancient, modern, tile or iron-cast, their functionality, as well as design, cannot be put aside. Moreover, this kitchenware has also endured the test of time and continues to exist despite the invasion of high-technological kitchen tools or equipment.
