Henriot Quimper Trivet

Faience is a type of tin-glazed earthenware known for its delicate, decorative finish. Because it is hand-painted, we recommend hand-washing with mild soap and avoiding the dishwasher to preserve the integrity of the glaze and the artisanal artwork.

No, each piece is unique. Because every trivet is painted by a single artist using the traditional Fleuri pattern, you should expect slight variations in brushstrokes and color intensity, which are hallmarks of authentic Henriot Quimper craftsmanship.

Yes, this piece is designed to be both a decorative accent and a functional trivet. It is durable enough to protect your table from warm serving dishes, though it should not be used as a direct trivet for pots taken straight off a high-heat burner.

Every authentic piece from the Henriot Quimper workshop features the artist's signature or initials, confirming it was produced in their historic French studio. This signature is your guarantee of the genuine 'Quimper Paint Touch' technique.

The Fleuri pattern is a classic Breton design that celebrates traditional French floral motifs. It is one of the most recognizable styles from the Quimper region, characterized by its vibrant, folk-art inspired aesthetic.
