Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Chicago
Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Chicago
The Windy City’s cover is characteristically pragmatic. The layout is reminiscent of the Chicago’s city grid. A broad shouldered typeface, while thinly drawn, announces the use boldly. A nod to Kapoor has altered one depression.
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.
