It has a hint of rust in places and needs a clean.  The top wire on one side has been bent down a little and some wire connecting the end loops is missing.  I have not attempted to change this but it should not be difficult to restore it to its original state if required.    The total length is 22.5cm and it is 12cm at the widest part.  It stands over 5cm high.  Postage will be £1.50 in the UK;  £2.50 to Europe, airmail;  £3.50 worldwide airmail, £1.90 surface.  I am listing other trivets and will be happy to combine postage. Payment by personal cheque or PayPal from a buyer in the UK please.  An international buyer must use PayPal. Place a Bid!
