Donald Allen's Sweet and Useful Homemade Square Trivet wire scrubber The way that it is

The way that it is painted makes the goat appear rather more like a symbol than an actual thing

mostly where the sides meet the bottom

with a nice warm patina and the wood super smooth

stapled along seams on the sides and top

Donald Allen's Sweet and Useful Homemade Square Trivet wire scrubber The way that it isA sweet old handmade trivet, perfectly imperfectly letterpress stamped "Donald Allen" on the underside. I can't not bring home things like this, which Donald was clearly proud of, and it would make an excellent platform pedestal for sorts for all sorts of things. Useful on the table of course, too. 6 x 6 x 1 3 8 and in very good condition, nice patina, very sturdy and sound.
