Dunhill Sterling Silver Pepper Mill

Filed under: Dining, Gadgets, Men's Style

Here's the perfect gift for the discerning gourmet food lover on your list who likes his dishes seasoned just so: a portable sterling silver pepper mill from Dunhill, in a black calf leather pouch with a silver ring closure that's as elegant as any fine gentleman's accessory - as it should be for $1,300. Meticulously handcrafted by a single artisan in Germany, the pepper mill is the same size and weight as a Dunhill lighter and comes elegantly inscribed with founder Alfred Dunhill's own signature taken straight from the firm's archives. Aside from storage, the pouch buffs the mill should fingerprints smudge the refined polish, and the sterling silver ring doubles up to screw open the device in order to refill it with peppercorns.

Sad Ghost Salt and Pepper Shakers

Ghosts are supposed to be scary, especially this time of year, but these little salt and pepper shakers are anything but. Designer Marcel Dzama must have had some reason in mind as far as why these little guys are crying, and although I think they're super cute I would probably not have them in my own home because it would bug me that they're upset all the time (silly, I know!).

The Sad Ghost Salt and Pepper Shakers are porcelain, measure 3" high, and go for $75.

Jonathan Adler Bird Salt and Pepper Shakers

What better for a summer table than a pair of chubby little birds that won't make a mess? Although they are cute and a little chubby, these bird salt and pepper shakers from Jonathan Adler are also modern and classy. Simplified down to their purest form and then accented with bold geometrical patterns, they have a surprising air of life and I almost expect them to bob their little heads in agreement. Created of high fired stoneware and available in either chartreuse or white, the taller one stands 3" high. $48.

Peugeot 'Tresses' Pepper and Salt Mill Set

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Decor

Stainless steel is always great because of it's durability and timeless appeal, but it also has an unfortunately low number of options when it comes to appearance. And although stainless steel pretty much always looks like stainless steel, this Peugeot 'Tresses' Pepper and Salt Mill Set has a slightly different look thanks to a sophisticated braided design. The mills are adjustable to your personal grind preference, come pre-filled with peppercorns and sea salt crystals, and have a lifetime warranty. $170.99.

Greek Pepper Mill

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Dining

If you're a pepper fan, you probably always had a little thing for those giant pepper mills that some restaurants equip their waitstaff with. This 10-inch Greek Pepper Mill may not quite have the size of those models, but it makes up for it in style. Made in Greece, the pepper mill is made of brass and is modeled after traditional brass coffee mills that were once hugely popular in that area of the Mediterranean. The mill's grinding mechanism cracks the peppercorns before crushing them, which exposes more surface area for a more consistent grind and releases more flavor. The grind is adjustable and the handle/lid are removable. Price: $80.

Peugeot Fidji Salt & Pepper Mills

Filed under: Dining

We've seen other salt and pepper mills from Peugeot before, but the Fidji Salt & Pepper Mills offers something a little bit different design-wise. They are made out of stainless steel and matte black or cherry hardwood. Each stands 8.25-inches tall and is easy to handle, thanks to the curving, modern shape of the mill. To produce the most ideal grind and ensure even distribution of seasoning from both the salt and the pepper, each has a grinder mechanism that is made of case hardened steel. Its action causes the peppercorns to crack in half before finely grinding them. Price: $90.

Salt and Pepper Orbs

Filed under: Dining

Dynamic is not a word that is often used to describe salt and pepper shakers, but these Salt and Pepper Orbs from Andi Kovel might qualify for that descriptor because they have an uncanny flowing sense about them. The glass is blown to order and each is individually shaped, so there will be a subtle variation between shakers. Like the Rocks Ice Bucket and Tumblers from the same designer, the glass used to make these is recycled and processed in a facility that is entirely wind-powered. Both the salt and pepper orbs stand about 4" high and fill from the bottom, which is sealed with a cork.

Salt and Pepper by Peugeot

Filed under: Dining, Gadgets

Slashfood likes to spice up their food, and judging by the enthusiasm that they have for Peugeot's electric Salt and Pepper Mills, they don't like to expend a lot of energy to do it. Fortunately for the diner who seeks convenience in addition to good taste, these mills automatically grind up salt and pepper at the touch of a button, no twisting or shaking necessary. The mills use mechanism that is nearly identical to the one that was invented by Peugeot for the first pepper mills back in 1842. Price: $200.
