ThomasPowers Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Antique Iron, Survey of American and English forms 15th -19th centuries Herbert, Peter and Nancy Schiffer. About 16 pressing iron trivets and another 16 pot trivets. Iron and Brass Implements of the English House, J. Seymour Lindsay, Check the index as Trivets has 8 sub entries each one including several pages... Irons in the Fire, Rachael Feild, page 72 has 3 examples including the one I've made a dozen or 2 of... Note she calls them Brandreths "to hold pots, baking irons, frying pans and griddle pans just off the direct heat of the fire" Entries for trivets in the index Early American Wrought Iron , Albert H. Sonn plates 302, 304, 308, 309 In the Kitchen section include some trivets. Decorative Antique Ironwork, Henry Rene D'Allemagne, excessively excessive excess! plate 338 with some crossover with grills and toasters. Some examples of forge welding that will make your jaw drop; but mainly "display" items. Gotta check my work email for issues on second shift; I hope to add a few more sometime...

jlpservicesinc Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I don't have anything to add reference material wise, but here are a few I have made in the past few months.. And here are 2 no weld examples.. The Round one will be a "How to" video once it's done being edited.. It was made and filmed today.. It's a no weld forged ring.. Nestled double heart, Fire/camp trivet, simple hear trivet, and then a food warmer.. Not really a trivet other than the 3 legs.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arkie Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 That's a nice looking bunch of trivets! The double "heart-in-heart" is really unique and attractive. I might try a few of those sometime, thanks for posting the photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Ling Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Me being someone who does open fire cast iron cooking, I really liked that folding trivet, I haven't seen one like that. would be nice to make one, a dutch oven is already bad enough to carry around in the woods!

KMG Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 I found an old thread about trivets that lead me to some beautiful photos and I was hoping you stilled made these trivets I am looking at the heart one with the candle holder and the three piece bar fire pit trivet Do you sell them and can you tell me the cost. Thank you for your time Kathy G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Kathy: Mark checks in occasionally but but I'm sure he'll be happy to talk about what you'd like him to make, he's a professional blacksmith. Try sending him a PM. click on his avatar and select "Message" he'll see that much sooner than a post on the forum. The thread you're replying to hasn't seen activity in 5 years, I strongly doubt he's following it or has notices set for it. Make sense? Shoot him a PM. Frosty The Lucky.

ThomasPowers Posted January 8, 2023 Author Share Posted January 8, 2023 If you are more out my way there is a NMABA member that makes terribly nice highly ornamental trivets----I got one in an Iron in the Hat and it's now hung on the wall as an ornamental piece.
