American Bear Jute Trivet

Yes, the braided jute construction is thick and durable enough to support heavy cast iron cookware while protecting your table or countertop from heat damage.

Because it is made from natural jute fibers, you should spot clean it with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid submerging it in water or putting it in the washing machine, as this can cause the fibers to lose their shape.

The design is applied to withstand normal kitchen use, but like any natural fiber product, it may show slight wear if exposed to direct, prolonged sunlight or frequent heavy scrubbing. It is designed to maintain its rustic look throughout its lifespan.

A 10-inch diameter is standard for most dinner plates, medium-sized serving bowls, and standard skillets. If you frequently use extra-large roasting pans or oversized platters, you may want to use two trivets side-by-side for full coverage.

Natural jute can have a faint, earthy scent when first unboxed, which is typical for plant-based fibers. This smell dissipates quickly once the trivet is exposed to open air.
