These peppermills are constructed with the same attention to
detail, color, and form as the other artworks I do. I've used high quality US-made peppermill mechanisms to ensure years of trouble-free use. These
peppermills represent an ideal blend of the practical with the artistic. They
bring a unique artistic flair to the kitchen or dining room.
I've used two basic designs for peppermills. The first - the Classic look - is a
traditional peppermill shape, with a rounded top for turning and a base sculpted
for ease of holding and carrying. I liken the shape to that of a pawn in a
classic chess set. The second shape I use is a hourglass-shaped mill. This
shape has a more 'Scandinavian' look - simple yet well balanced and elegant.
This shape is inspired by the candlestick designs of the late Rude Osolnik.
The tops of the mills each have a radiating pattern I call the
'Starburst' (see detail photos below). This is made of 12 segments of wood, often matched for grain
pattern, separated by thin pieces of contrasting wood veneer.
From time to time I am asked about matching salt shakers to
create a set. Upon request, I will create a matching salt shaker -
typically matching the woods and general pattern, but perhaps altering the
spiral direction or top of the shaker.
All peppermills are finished with several coats of Tung Oil,
then buffed to a high sheen and waxed with a hard carnauba wax finish.
