This kitchen trivet is made from organic cork, a sustainable and regenerative material. The design shows a map of the British Isles and sea areas covering the waters around the British Isles.

Handmade trivets combining natural organic cork with a smooth, matte earthenware tile. Grown in Portugal, crafted in Portugal, designed to protect surfaces from hot pots, pans, and dishes.
  • Durable and practical hot pads for your work surface and table.
  • The tile is attached and set into the cork surround.
  • Fun, vibrant design inspired by British History.
  • Easy to wipe clean.

This year marks a century of the Shipping Forecast – a true British national treasure.

For one hundred years, it's soothing, familiar tones have offered comfort and reassurance, both to those at sea and to those on land. Whether guiding mariners through their voyages or helping insomniacs find rest, the Shipping Forecast has become an iconic part of British life.

To commemorate this milestone, we’re excited to launch our new collection celebrating this beloved broadcast.

Our range features elegant printed cork placemats, trays, and coasters, designed to bring a touch of this British tradition into your home. Each item in the collection is crafted with care, paying homage to the Shipping Forecast’s enduring legacy.

- Made from organic cork - lightweight, durable, and naturally water resistant
- Matte earthenware tile with simple, contemporary printed designs
- Perfect for protecting worktops and tables from hot cookware
