Heat resistant finish for a trivet
Merry Christmas everyone. Looking for some help. I had some nice walnut cutoffs that I made into a trivet for my wife. Now I’m looking for a heat resistant finish. I want the grain and colors to pop, but don’t want to darken the wood too much. Suggestions? And, no, this is not her Christmas present. Thanks

Ive used a high temp poly finish. The trivets I make have air channels on each side to reduce heat. They run perpendicular to each other from opposite sides.
