Cracks and stains on tabletops result from the lack of trivets. A trivet is an
object that is placed underneath a bowl, or any kitchen ware that contains
hot food in order to prevent its direct contact with your table surface. In the
past, it was made of iron but there were two problems from such design:
iron is a heat conductor and it is heavy. That’s why home makers continued
to create new revisions until they came up with the
flexible trivet
that is
made of a combination of silicone and metal.
