A note on SHIPPING:  I will put as many trivets as I can fit into a Priority Mail 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!!

Thayer's Patent 8-in-1 Trivet  This cast iron antique is a trivet and then some!  It was made to serve 8 functions, and I'm not sure if I can remember them all but it was also a candle holder, a pot lifter, a stove lid lifter, meat tenderizer, and I guess whatever else you could think of to do with it.  It's a little bit crusty with age but should clean up nicely, and I believe I see the patent info inscribed.  Oftentimes these trivets are found with broken legs or cracks, but this one does not have any of those problems.       ML-T-5b   

Very Good..........  $45.00

3 Brass / Copper Trivets  All three of these are fairly thin and lightweight because they are not cast.  The trivet on the left has a shinny copper finish and is marked "C. 1.
