Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 19TH CENTURY:
Turned brass baluster legs: typical late 19th-century hearth design.
Slotted fixing screws at the corners: fasteners before cross-head fixings were introduced.
Softened openwork edges and crevices: many years of routine cleaning and polishing.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This 19th-century Victorian English brass trivet displays a warm brass colour with a polished finish. The rectangular top incorporates three distinct sections of pierced fretwork, showing scrolling flourishes at either end and a central diamond lattice pattern flanked by vertical slats. The piece is supported on four slender turned legs with decorative collars and round feet, and is assembled with visible screws at the corners. Measuring 13 cm high, 44 cm wide and 19.5 cm deep, this stand has a spacious top surface suitable for holding two kettles. In a modern interior, this trivet serves primarily as a decorative accent or functional stand on a fireplace hearth. It can also be placed on a side table or mantelpiece to display small decorative items, adding a traditional English country house touch to living spaces.

FAQs

During the Victorian era, brass trivets were designed to sit near or over a hearth, elevating kettles and teapots above direct heat or protecting timber surfaces from hot cookware.

Authentic Victorian trivets were typically sand-cast from solid brass, featuring hand-finished pierced fretwork patterns and turned metal legs secured with threaded fittings.

Authentic period pieces display subtle casting irregularities, uneven oxidisation in recessed fretwork, hand-cut thread joinery, and natural wear patterns on the base of the feet.

A brass trivet functions as a functional accent on a kitchen island, a surface protector for hot dishes, or a raised platform for candles and small potted plants on a console table.

Clean gently with warm water and mild liquid soap to remove surface dust. To retain original patina, avoid harsh chemical abrasives, or use a specialized metal polish for a bright finish.
