Antique Trivet, Gien Renaissance

A rare piece of art to adorn your table.
Though a practical item, this trivet possesses an artistic quality akin to a painting.
At its center is an intricately depicted medallion in a heraldic style, flanked by mythical motifs (twin fish and birds) characteristic of the Renaissance, all vividly hand-painted.
