Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Santa Fe
Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Santa Fe
Once Tanoan, then Spanish, then Mexican, and now American as of 1912, The City Different has representations of the latter three on its manhole cover in the form of its coat of arms. The Zia symbol occupies the 6 O’clock position as a nod to indigenous people. Century Schoolbook typeface lends a formal presentation to the cover.
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.
