These handcrafted peppermills are turned out of Ironwood for beauty and durability. Indigenous to South Africa, Ironwood is one of the hardest woods in the world. The peppermill is fitted with a CrushGrind® mechanism, which is made in Denmark. The ceramic parts carry a 25 year guarantee and has 12 coarseness settings that can be adjusted by turning the dial at the underside of the mill.
