The edge is engraved with the heartwarming message "Start the day with a smile," a characteristic touch of Holly Hobbie. 【Features】 Material: Made of brass, which ages beautifully. It has a substantial feel, and the more you use it, the more it develops a deep, antique-like character. Design: A country-style illustration of a girl (Holly Hobbie) working in the kitchen. ※※ This is one of Holly Hobbie's classic artworks.

Usage: Besides being used as a trivet, it's also very popular to display it as a "wall decoration" using the hole in the handle. Condition: As a vintage item, it has some brass-specific tarnishing and signs of use, but there is no significant damage, and all the legs on the back are present. 【Size】 Total Length: Approximately 22 cm Diameter: Approximately 15.5 cm Weight: 268 grams ※ It has a substantial weight. 【Shipping】 It will be carefully packaged and shipped via Mercari delivery.
