This round, silver-plated brass trivet from the 1960s was produced by the Danish manufacturer Wallace using traditional metalworking techniques. Its surface displays a cool, softly muted silver tone, acquiring a matte finish from the natural patina and oxidation accumulated over the years. An intricate openwork pattern of floral and foliate motifs, inspired by Rococo, is symmetrically arranged across the trivet. The edges are accentuated with scalloped, ornamental profiles, enhancing its decorative presence. Discreet small feet elevate the piece, allowing for effective heat dispersion. The texture remains largely smooth, punctuated by authentic age-related spots and discolorations typical of vintage metalwork. No modern reinforcements or screws are visible, underscoring its period authenticity. The condition can be described as good – typical signs of wear and time are present, yet all decorative elements remain original and complete.The silver-plated brass of this trivet evokes a time when even the humblest household objects were crafted for longevity and attention to detail. Within its mid-century frame echoes of Rococo are visible: the filigree, undulating lines make the trivet seem as though it quietly recounts stories from tables past. Leafy and floral ornamentation, subtly muted by patina, invokes memories of elegant living rooms from the 1960s—a vignette from an era that prized both ornament and function.The trivet can serve not only as a practical element for serving hot dishes, but also as a striking decorative piece on a console, sideboard
