More Antique Trivets

 page 2           

A note on SHIPPING:  Large heavy trivets will be shipped in a Priority Mail Flat Rate box for $10 if possible.  Smaller ones in Priority boxes for $6.00.  I will put as many trivets of any size as I can fit into the Flat Rate box, making the shipping rate for multiple buys very attractive. 

A note on ORDERING trivets from this page:  Because of the volume of trivets we are offering the best way to order trivets from this page, after selecting the one(s) you want, would be to click the Order Now button to open an email.  Then place your mouse just to the right of the order now button for the one selected and click the left button down, and move your mouse to just above the picture until it and the text is highlighted. Release, right click, hit copy, then simply paste what you just copied into the email window and tell me which trivet(s) you want in the picture that shows.  This will save a bunch of time, and ensure that you get the correct trivet(s).  And is really simple to do.  Thanks!!

3 Contemporary Trivets  And by contemporary I don't mean new, but just not as early as most of the others out of the collection.  These three probably date from the 1950's-60's.  The trivet on the left is marked "Wilton Tassel 10".  The center one is unmarked and seems to have more age than the other two.  The one on the right is marked "Spiller _ _ _ _ _ _ " I can't quite make it out.        ML-T13-1     ML-T13-2     ML-T13-3
