Beautiful peppermill handmade from an urban Colorado Silver Maple tree. The mill has a spot through the middle that looks like a glare in the pictures (3rd picture), but that's the chatoyance of the wood! The spot appears to change in size and intensity depending on how the light hits it which is so cool. Pretty wood, clean lines, attractive shape, smooth curves, buttery smooth finish, made to last a lifetime. Nice.
The pictures show the mill from all 4 sides. The body of the mill measures 8" tall, and to the top of the knob it's sold 8.5" tall.
I used a Deluxe Stainless Steel grinding mechanism which is durable, high quality, requires no maintenance, and is made in the USA. The mechanism will not corrode and should last a lifetime. This mill should only be used with pepper, never salt.
The details on my peppermills extend beyond just the outside looks. The bottom is finished to the same high standards and detail as the rest of the mill. The top turns smoothly and freely - you will never have a squeaky or binding top in any of my mills. The fit between the head and body is perfect - just as you would expect an heirloom should be! The finish is silky smooth to the touch - something you'll appreciate every time you use it.
Use and care instructions are provided with every pepper mill.

Why buy from Colorado Kitchen Heirlooms? In a word: Quality.
I've been trained by some of the world's best professional woodturners, and that training shows in the quality of my work. My peppermills are beautiful, functional, and will last for years. You can't buy this kind of handmade quality in the store. If you were able to compare my mills to others, you would immediately see and feel the difference. I take great care to ensure the shape is pleasing and the curves are smooth and flowing from top to bottom. The finish is smooth to the touch. The fit between top and bottom is perfect and the top turns effortlessly. Every mill has the wood species and my name burned into the bottom recess.
All items are handmade by me. My peppermills give you an heirloom that you can use daily, and then pass down throughout your family.
