Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Moscow
Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Moscow
Situated on the Moskva River, the capital of Russia has seen many forms of governance; most of the tyrannical sort. Yet, beauty endures in Moscow when nourished such as this manhole cover featuring a pentagrammic array with a fortified center…much like the Kremlin. An egg and dart motif rings the cover echoing Greco-Beaux Arts influence. This cover can be found in an idyllic cafe courtyard at Perunovskiy Pereulok, 1, Moskva, Russia, 127055. Part of the Moscow Manhole Coaster set.
The perfect gift for housewarmings, and anniversaries each illustration is initially hand-drawn for precision and then permanently etched into cork. The trivets are .375" thick and 7.25" in diameter with rounded edges. The engraving method has incredible detail and tactility. Fabricated from sustainable Portuguese cork. Designed and packaged in Philadelphia, PA USA.
Cork is a natural material, thus rare aberrations within the etching can occur.
As each one is made to order please allow three business days for delivery.
