TRIVET

Object/Artifact

-

St. Joseph Museums

The image shows a small, intricately designed black metal trivet with an ornate pattern resembling decorative ironwork. The trivet has three small legs, allowing it to stand slightly elevated from the surface it's placed on. Attached to the trivet is a white tag with handwritten text that reads "Childs Toy Trivet" along with some additional numbers and a letter "B." The piece is resting on a textured, bubble wrap-like surface, indicating careful handling or preservation. The trivet’s craftsmanship suggests it may be a miniature version of a domestic tool, possibly intended for play or display, reflecting historical or nostalgic value.
