Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-DOVER, DE
Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-DOVER, DE
Located in Kent County, one of only three counties in Delaware, Dover was founded in 1693. Home to just over 35,000 people, many of whom are involved with state government as well as the air force base and Kraft foods. Twice a year the city comes to life with NASCAR races at Dover International Speedway where this nearby pragmatic cover can be found. A standard double-striped hatchwork field is interrupted by the “City of Dover” in a DIN typeface. One stripe has a unique shape and the pickpoints are located in a broader rim area at the lower quadrant.
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.
