Menu’s folding trivet plays with form and function while protecting your table top from heat, cold and liquids. The wings are slim and aerodynamic, giving them a light and airy appearance. Trivets can be highly impractical when it comes to storage. But the blades of the trivet can be folded together, just like a fan, to save space. Once folded it fits perfectly into the cutlery drawer. And naturally it is just as easy to fold out again to enable you and your guests to appreciate the elegant design before using it for dishes and pans.
