This is a 9 inch trivet made from rope we are recycling from Alaskan fishing gear. 
It is hand knotted from rope and measures 9 inches (with in 1/2")
These look great hanging on the wall until you need them for a hot dish.

Withstands temperatures up to 350 degree F

Also works for centerpieces on table or under flowers/plants just in case over watering occurs the rope will soak up the excess water.
