Heat tolerance of black chrome plating?

October 23, 2010

I have some items in my kitchen tat would great with a black chrome finish but I have no idea how this would react under heat. The items in question are copper trivets on my gas cooktop. They presently have an enamel coating but this does not wear well.
I would like to see them recoated with a hard wearing finish that looks good (and is black)
The surface of the cooktop is black glass so the black chrome would look great with this.. I'm just worried that the heat from the burners would cause a change in colour
