Full details
The VICTOR Oval Trivet is an essential kitchen accessory for home cooks and hosts who need a reliable way to protect their dining tables and countertops from heat damage. Crafted from heavy-duty cast iron, this trivet offers a sophisticated, traditional aesthetic with its intricate cut-work design, though its rigid metal composition means it lacks the non-slip rubber feet found on some modern silicone alternatives.

FAQs
Can this trivet be used in the oven?
Yes, it is made of cast iron and can withstand high oven temperatures, though it is primarily designed for tabletop protection.
Is the trivet dishwasher safe?
No, it is not recommended to clean this in the dishwasher as it can cause the cast iron to rust.
Will this scratch my glass dining table?
Because the underside is cast iron, it is recommended to place a thin protective cloth underneath if your table surface is prone to scratching.
What are the primary benefits of the oval shape?
The oval shape is specifically designed to accommodate roasting pans and oval-shaped Dutch ovens more securely than standard circular trivets.
How do I remove food spills from the iron?
Wipe with a damp cloth immediately after the trivet has cooled down. For stubborn spills, use a mild soap and dry immediately.
Troubleshooting
Visible surface residue or crumbs in the design
Use a soft-bristled brush or a toothpick to gently dislodge debris from the intricate cut-work patterns.
Trivet slides on smooth surfaces
Place a thin cloth or a heat-resistant silicone mat underneath the trivet to create a non-slip barrier.
Appearance of rust
Lightly scrub the affected area with fine steel wool and lightly coat with a small amount of cooking oil to season and protect the iron.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the trivet is simple: place it on a level, heat-resistant surface before positioning your hot cookware. It is compatible with all standard cookware materials, including stainless steel, cast iron, and enameled ceramics. To maintain the finish and structural integrity, wipe the trivet clean with a dry or lightly dampened cloth after use. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads that might scratch the black finish. Because it is cast iron, ensure it is completely dry before storing it to prevent rust, and do not submerge it in water for extended periods.
