This elegant vintage trivet features a finely pierced floral and scrollwork design in silver-plate over clear glass — a hallmark construction of mid-century Spanish export pieces. The intricate sunburst center and delicate cutouts create a gleaming, decorative surface that beautifully reflects light.
Crafted from a thin sheet of silver-plate mounted over glass, this trivet was likely made in Spain circa 1960s, in the style of Leonard of Spain pieces. The combination of glass backing and openwork silver top made these mid-century designs both practical and eye-catching — ideal for protecting tabletops from hot dishes or serving as a striking base for teapots, candles, or decorative displays.
There are a few light scratches in the center from normal use over the years, along with minor scorch marks from warm serving dishes. The surface retains bright luster and vintage charm.
