Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Salt Lake City
Manhole Cover Cork Trivet-Salt Lake City
Produced for the 2002 Winter Olympics, these covers have become scarce in Salt Lake City as many have been lost to theft. The cover consists of the extraordinary snowflake logo produced in 1997 for the games by Landor Associates, which has three colored sections-yellow for the Olympic flame, Orange to represent the Utah Native culture, and the lower blue section representing the snow-capped mountains. The logo is surrounded by geometric linework echoing the logo design. The text’s typeface is Frutiger and the cover itself was manufactured by D&L industries. Instead of stealing one, now you can have a functional replica!
The perfect gift for housewarmings, and anniversaries each illustration is initially hand-drawn for precision and then permanently etched into cork. The trivets are .375" thick and 7.25" in diameter with rounded edges. The engraving method has incredible detail and tactility. Fabricated from sustainable Portuguese cork. Designed and packaged in Philadelphia, PA USA.
Cork is a natural material, thus rare aberrations within the etching can occur.
As each one is made to order please allow three business days for delivery.
