These beautiful hand woven trivets begin their journey in the hills of Rwanda, where artisans gather forest grasses and sisal leaves to create something both functional and meaningful. Each trivet starts with sisal fibers carefully extracted, cleaned, and dyed before being threaded around a core of locally-gathered forest grasses, taking shape bit by bit through patient handwork.The warm tea color comes from steeping the sisal fibers in Rwandan tea leaves, creating a natural hue that brings earthy elegance to any table. At nine inches in diameter with a convenient hanging loop, these trivets protect your surfaces while adding handcrafted beauty to your kitchen rituals.More than kitchen accessories, these trivets carry the skill and intention of artisan hands, connecting your daily moments to a tradition of mindful craft and meaningful work.
