Joyce Chen 90-4040, Constellation Trivet, 7.5-Inch Review

Part of the Joyce Chen Tetsubin line, this Constellation cast iron trivet features a stylish black finish. This trivet is ideal for keeping your tabletop surface cool, while keeping your cast iron pot warm. This trivet also has small cast iron feet with silicone covers to protect your fine surfaces from possibly being blemished. The trivet works with all teapots. Measuring 7-1/2 inches, it can be washed by hand for upkeep. These Japanese cast iron trivets are admired and collected not only for their quiet delicacy but also for their versatility. Safe for a hot teapot but beautiful enough to use as a decor piece.Joyce Chen’s slogan Eastern Cookware for the Western Kitchen, reflects her focus on providing high-quality, versatile tools and products that have Asian flair, but can be used in a western kitchen. Joyce Chen opened her first restaurant in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1958. The restaurant flourished, and in 1973 a larger Cambridge restaurant was opened. Chen also began writing Chinese cookbooks and in the 1970s began hosting a cooking show on public television. She found that the selection and quality of Chinese cookware in America didn’t live up to her high standards so she developed her own. Today, Joyce Chen Products come from all over the Pacific Rim to bring the best of Asia to you.
