The Portland Pepper Mill
------------------
For this collection, each piece is given the name of a city where I've spent time. I live on the outskirts of this famously rainy city, and the gray tones in this peppermill remind me of the sky in winter.

Shaped from spalted walnut with a soft gray, cloud-like feature across the top, this smaller pepper mill brings natural beauty and fine craftsmanship right to the table.

- Handmade from a fallen walnut tree
- Unique spalted wood
- Classical profile
- 6 inches tall, 2.5 inches in diameter
- Premium, stainless steel adjustable grinding mechanism
------------------
Shaped from a piece of spalted walnut, this pepper mill is full of quiet detail and character. The walnut came from a downed tree that was carefully dried and cured before being turned on the lathe into its final form. The top of the mill shows a beautiful cloudy gray pattern—a natural feature in the wood that gives it a soft, organic look you’ll notice every time you reach for it.

Spalted walnut is something special. The intricate lines and shifting tones happen naturally when fungi interact with the wood, creating dark tracings and subtle color variations over time. No two pieces ever turn out the same, which makes each mill completely one of a kind.

Smoothly sanded and sealed with a durable varnish, it’s designed to last a lifetime. The stainless steel grinding mechanism delivers a perfect grind every time.

Sized just right for the dining table, this mill makes a thoughtful gift for weddings, holidays, or anyone who loves the warmth and beauty of handcrafted woodwork. Made from salvaged material, it gives new life to a fallen walnut tree.

CARE & USE:
----------------
This pepper mill has a durable finish and does not need to be oiled. Simply wipe with a damp cloth to clean.

The coarseness of the grind can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the knob with your fingertips. Use a coarse grind while cooking, then twist to switch to a fine grind for serving.
