Know before you buy
The Natural Ebonised finish highlights the raw, organic grain of the Eucalyptus Gum. The Black Charred finish utilizes the traditional Japanese Shou Sugi Ban technique, which burns the surface of the wood to create a deep, durable, and textured aesthetic.
Yes, the ceramic mechanism is versatile enough to handle peppercorns, dried herbs, and salt. However, we recommend avoiding moisture-rich salts, as they can potentially corrode or clog the internal components over time.
The Danish-designed ceramic mechanism features a dial that allows you to click through 14 distinct levels of coarseness. This gives you precise control, ranging from a fine dust for delicate seasoning to a coarse crack for finishing steaks or salads.
No. Because each mill is individually hand-turned from reclaimed Eucalyptus Gum, every piece features unique wood grain patterns and slight variations in shape. You are receiving a one-of-a-kind object rather than a mass-produced item.
The mill is finished with natural tung oil, which provides a protective barrier. Simply wipe the exterior clean with a soft, dry cloth as needed; avoid submerging the wood in water or using harsh chemical cleaners.
