Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Stuttgart
Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Stuttgart
Located on the Neckar river and home to Mercedes and Porsche, Stuttgart is Germany’s 6th largest city. The coat of arms features a rampant horse that occupies a square on this gullideckel manufactured by M. Streicher in 1914. The checkerboard motif is surrounded by custom sans serif lettering. In theory, one could play a game on the cover, but you could get run over by some of the fastest and best-built cars in the world!
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.
