Trivets come in a variety of designs, with this particular model being available to purchase from Ikea homestores. It is large enough to put at least two hot saucepans on, so that the worktop or table doesn't get burnt or damaged from the heat of the pans - or perhaps a hot oven tray just taken out of the stove.
