The design inspiration for this absorbent sandstone trivet is provided by a window design from the B. Harley Bradley House (Kankakee, Illinois, 1900). 7" diameter.
Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) is recognized world-wide as one of the greatest architects of the twentieth century. His work heralded a new thinking in architecture, using innovation in design and engineering made possible by newly developed technology and materials. His creative ability extended far beyond the border of architecture to graphic design, furniture, art glass, textiles, and decorative elements for the home.
Gracing a cul-de-sac and overlooking the Kankakee River, this handsome two story home designed by Frank Lloyd Wright early in his career, has a variety of unique and beautiful leaded glass windows. These designs show Wright’s early fascination with intricate designs made of geometric shapes at a time when his contemporaries were using elaborate Victorian embellishments. This product has been adapted from a detail of one of those windows.
