This trivet was found in an old farmhouse my daughter was renting...in Southern Illinois. We were asked to come to purchase many items from an estate as the kids didn't want anything out of the house. These trivets that I am listing were hung above their huge fireplace and they looked so pretty. I used them in my own home for many years in my kitchen under the cabinets. I moved from my big farmhouse to a raised ranch and didn't have anywhere to hang them as wall space is limited. I forgot I had them until I started going through many boxes of items stored in my basement storage area. Wanting to downsize, sell this house and travel things must go. I hope some of you out there can add these to your collection or know someone who will love them as much as I did when I had them displayed.
This one needs a good cleaning. I rinsed it off and lightly ran over it with a bottle brush just to clean off some of the dust. I know it has rust but since this item is a cast iron product they can be cleaning easily. Some people like the rusting … some don't. Here is the recipe to clean them:
