Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-St. Petersburg
Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-St. Petersburg
Once a swamp, St. Petersburg was born in 1703. In WWI the city became Petrograd, then Leningrad three years later. St. Petersburg never forgot the original label-even during the 900 day siege of WWII. The Constructivist graphic is of its time. This graphic can be found in many eastern bloc nations as well as Scandinavia.
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.
