BAKUS Trivet

BAKUS Cork Trivet: Sustainable Design That Preserves Memories

BAKUS is much more than a designer trivet. It offers a creative way to give wine corks a second life, transforming memories of dinners, celebrations and special occasions into a functional object for your home.

Designed by Tati Guimarães, BAKUS features a stainless steel structure that holds up to 36 wine corks. Once filled, it becomes a heat-resistant trivet, ideal for protecting your table from hot pots, pans and other cookware.

An object that grows with your experiences, turning every cork into a small story.

Tati Guimarães' Design Featured at New York's MoMA

BAKUS has gained international recognition thanks to its clever combination of simplicity, sustainability and thoughtful design.

BAKUS has been featured in the international retail catalogue of New York's Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) since 2013 and was once among its best-selling products, according to the Ecodisseny a Catalunya publication by the Government of Catalonia.

This recognition highlights a beautifully simple idea: transforming an everyday reusable material into a contemporary design object with personal meaning.

How Does BAKUS Work?

The concept is as simple as it is ingenious. Save the natural cork stoppers from your wine bottles and insert them into the stainless steel frame.

Turn 36 Wine Corks into an Original Trivet

BAKUS holds up to 36 wine corks, with no glue or additional adhesives required.

Fill it with corks from wines shared with friends, birthdays, holidays or family celebrations. Each trivet becomes a unique object that tells your own story.

Once complete, it works as a practical trivet for hot cookware, taking advantage of cork's natural insulating properties.

Wine corks are not included, allowing you to create your own collection of memories.

Eco-Design: Fewer Materials, More Creativity

BAKUS demonstrates how sustainable design can give new purpose to materials already found in our homes.

Its stainless steel structure is designed to minimise material use and simplify manufacturing.

The design requires no added glue, encourages long-lasting use and makes it easy to separate the corks for reuse or appropriate disposal at the end of the product's life.

A thoughtful approach to everyday design that brings together functionality, creativity and environmental awareness.
