Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Geneva
Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Geneva
The capital of the eponymous canton, Geneva is the second most populous city in Switzerland. A banking and diplomatic hub, Geneva is home to over 200,000 French speakers. The Swiss city sits at the southeastern end of Lake Geneva where the Rhone begins. Historically home to high-end watchmakers, this cover misses the opportunity going with concentric circles versus a spiral-look. “Public Works” is written in the center with an added Swiss cross at the pickpoint.
The Under Cover series replicates manhole covers from around the world into functional art in the form of coasters, trivets and magnets. 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.
Free domestic shipping. See the International Shipping Options.
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.
