This exquisite 1960s Electra Tile trivet marries mid-century modern elegance with practical design, featuring a vibrant floral ceramic tile framed by a sleek black metal base. A rare survivor in its original box, it includes the original Good Housekeeping Guarantee tag—a mark of trusted quality from the golden age of home innovation. Both functional and artful, it’s a piece that evokes the refined utility of the modernist domestic ideal.
Overall, item is in good vintage condition - warms up well. Does show some wear on the ceramic corners. Still has the original promotional tag. Please see all of the photos.
Historical Note: Manufactured by Automatic Controls Corporation of Ann Arbor, Michigan, Electra Tile trivets were part of a postwar wave of electric kitchen aids marketed to the stylish and efficient homemaker. This model, likely distributed under the Kingsware product line, reflects mid-century consumer trust in branded quality—underscored by its inclusion in Good Housekeeping, whose seal of approval appears on the still-attached tag.
