Handcrafted from leftover rice straw after harvest, these handwoven trivets add a rustic touch and practical support to your dining experience. Made by rice farmers from Sado Island using centuries-old weaving techniques, they provide superior cushioning and stability for heavy cookware compared to typical rush grass trivets. Each piece includes a hanging loop for effortless storage, marrying functionality with cultural elegance. Over time, the straw deepens in color, and any scorch marks enhance its character, reflecting a rich history of shared meals. Slight size variations highlight their handmade authenticity.
