A soft, lightweight and durable trivet made from rice (Inawara) straw. It is tightly woven so it can hold heavy items, such as a donabe pot, cast iron pot, and frying pans with ease.

Because it is not the traditional ring shape with a hold in the middle, but fully woven through the centre, it can easily be used under bowls, pots, and serving dishes of all shapes as a base. Also recommended to use it under potted plants to protect your floor.
