This 7" cork trivet features an engraved runic circle surrounding a Vegvisir. Engraved in Maryland, this trivet can withstand heat + makes any kitchen magical! The Vegvisir (Icelandic Vegvísir, “That Which Shows the Way;” pronounced “VEGG-vee-seer”) is a symbol described only in one modern Icelandic collection of spells, the so-called Huld manuscript. That book has nothing more than this one sentence to say about it: “If this sign is carried, one will never lose one’s way in storms or bad weather, even when the way is not known.”
