Peugeot Bistro Salt & Pepper Mill Set / Olivewood

A harmonious duo of salt and pepper mills made of olivewood, emblematic of the first mill designed by Peugeot in 1874.

—DETAILS—

The French company Peugeot may be most commonly associated with cars, but they made spice mills first, far back in 1874. In the 146 years since, no other salt and pepper mills stay as sharp, resist corrosion as well, and last as long, which is why nobody in the culinary industry would hesitate to call them ‘iconic’. Made of olivewood and adorned by bright metal knobs, just like the original design, this duo of Bistro salt and pepper mills embodies casual elegance. Equipped with Peugeots foolproof mechanisms for salt and pepper, both of which come with a lifetime guarantee, you can control the coarseness of the salt and pepper in these mills by tightening the top for a finer grind and loosening it for a more varied texture.

Note: These mills cannot be interchangeably, as their inner mechanisms are different. Salt mills are intended to grindlarge crystalsof salt; small particles of salt or sea salt flakes,like Maldon or Cornish,will get stuck in the mechanism.

—BENEFITS—

‘Any fine dining restaurant worth its salt (excuse the pun) has a Peugeot mill. Expertly crafted inside and out, these grinders seem to “wake up” pepper and salt just before it reaches your plate.’
