Know before you buy
Yes, the mill is designed to be versatile. It comes with interchangeable stainless steel 'S' and 'P' knobs so you can easily label it for either dry rock salt crystals or black peppercorns.
It features a durable ceramic grinding mechanism. Ceramic is ideal for spice mills because it is corrosion-resistant and provides a consistent grind for both salt and pepper.
To maintain the luster of the eight-coat lacquer finish, simply wipe the exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges that could scratch the surface.
Yes, the mill is crafted from solid Acacia wood that is FSC-certified, ensuring the materials are sourced from responsibly managed forests.
Because the mechanism is ceramic, it is naturally low-maintenance. We recommend only using dry spices, as moisture can cause salt or pepper to clump and potentially clog the grinding gears.
