This is a white trivet that was released in limited quantities in 2017. It is new and unused, with a serial number for lifetime warranty registration. STAUB products are handmade one by one. Due to the manufacturing process, there may be color variations, unevenness, black spots, and other individual differences unique to handmade items. We appreciate your understanding. It will be shipped in a STAUB box, packed with cushioning material and kraft paper. Thank you.
