I haven't found much on the Walter Addison who made this trivet, except for an auction record for a beautiful ceramic lamp from a Rhode Island estate sold at auction that noted his dates as 1914-1982. I found this and one other, listed separately, together in Connecticut, attributed to him by the seller (the backs are signed simple Addison) and just thought they were lovely. Definitely mid-century, with a satisfying matte glaze. I love this one for feeling both very modern and also as if nodding to Persian tiles and decoration, and Arabic script, etc. Also, as likely know by now, I love a matte green glaze of any sort, this one a bit minty-er than arts and crafts, but still perhaps a subtle nod to Grueby!

6 1/2" x 6 1/2" x 1/2" and in very good vintage condition, no chips, cracks or other issues.
