NEW! Tripod Trivet from Alessi

If you are looking for an unusual gift for a "foodie" friend then this brand new tripod trivet from Alessi may be just the thing. Designed by Gabriele Chiave, at first glance it could be mistaken for a piece of contemporary jewellery, with its delicate silver chain onto which four moveable chrome plated "jacks" are attached. Devised to dangle conveniently from a kitchen hook, it can be taken down and thrown like dice onto the dining table or kitchen worktop where it transforms into a trivet for hot saucepans, oven trays or serving dishes. Priced at £20 and available at Beth Stevens
