TIMELESS PEPPER MILL -The Antique Bistro pepper mill enhances the flavors of the meals that you create. This refined mill by Peugeot is a world-renowned symbol of French cafés and bistros. Designed as a reproduction of the original Peugeot mill from 1874 and still manufactured in France CRAFTED BEECHWOOD — Our Antique mills are made with aged beechwood sourced from local sustainably managed forests (PEFC-certified). Each item is unique and worked by hand to bring out the beauty and charm of the patina of age ADJUSTABLE KNOB — The grind control knob on the head of the mill can be twisted to create your precise balance of flavor. Adjust to obtain the preferred grind size. The tighter the knob, the finer the grind. The two-stage grinding mechanism first effortlessly cracks and then grinds the peppercorns to the desired coarseness PRECISION GRIND — Through two centuries of experience, we have expertly engineered each pepper mill and mechanism specifically for the consistency and shape of peppercorns. We make the gear mechanism from stainless steel that is treated to prevent corrosion and rust ENHANCE FLAVOR — Bring out all the aromatic depth of peppers by manually adjusting the grind to your taste. Very finely ground pepper will bring out its spice, while a coarser grind will highlight its aromas and flavor. Find your Peugeot moment and enjoy the art of French living with our instruments of taste
