There are products that solve a practical task. And then there are products that both solve a task and at the same time elevate the experience around the table. The new handmade trivet in smoked oak from by Brorson belongs to the latter category.

With its simple, Nordic design language and its warm, dark wood finish, the trivet appears as a stylish design object that naturally finds its place in modern homes. The beautiful smoked oak adds depth and exclusivity, while the soft, round shapes create a harmonious and inviting expression.

But it is not only the aesthetic that makes the trivet remarkable.

Built into the middle of the wood is a powerful magnet that elegantly and discreetly solves a well-known everyday problem. When a pot or pan is lifted from the stove, the trivet follows. This means it is always exactly where it needs to be used, without having to look for it in a drawer or kitchen cabinet first.

The well-thought-out function makes serving more fluid, safer and much more convenient. At the same time, it supports a relaxed and inviting table experience, where the focus can be on the food and the company.

With a diameter of 20 centimeters, the magnetic trivet is extremely versatile and can be used without any problems for everything from small saucepans to large ovenproof dishes and roasting pans. The solid height of 1.5 centimeters provides both stability and a distinctive visual expression on the table.

One of the greatest strengths of the design, however, is that the trivet does not need to be hidden away after use. On the contrary. The beautiful surface, the vibrant wood structure and the elegant dark color make it a decorative element that contributes to the table setting and creates a warm, exclusive atmosphere around the meal.

At a time when more consumers are demanding products with a long lifespan, local production conditions and genuine craftsmanship, by Brorson's new magnetic trivet hits a strong trend. It is produced locally in Denmark and made with respect for the materials and the traditions of craftsmanship.

"I am passionate about creating products that make everyday life a little easier without compromising on aesthetics. Far too many practical products end up tucked away in a drawer because they don't contribute positively to the interior design. With the trivet, I wanted to create a product that is both beautiful enough to be displayed and intelligent enough to solve a real challenge in everyday life."

"The hidden magnet is a good example of that philosophy. The function is almost invisible, but it makes a noticeable difference in use. At the same time, the trivet is produced locally in Denmark and made of solid oak, because I believe in products with a long lifespan, honest materials and a timeless design that can last for many years rather than following short-term trends."

"For me, good design is about combining function, quality and beauty in a way that feels natural. When a product becomes a permanent part of everyday life and at the same time contributes to the interior design of the home, it has achieved its purpose."
Designer and founder Rikke Brorson

The result is a functional quality product that combines the best of Danish design: honest materials, well-thought-out details and a timeless aesthetic that lasts year after year.

For the design-conscious consumer, the trivet is therefore not just a practical necessity – but a small luxury in everyday life that makes cooking, serving and table setting a little more beautiful.
