Offering another rare and highly collectible vintage Rosewood pepper / salt mill set of 2 from the 1970's designed by BIRGIT KROGH for WOODLINE. Made in Denmark. This set was made of beautifully grained exotic Rosewood ( Palisander ) with a natural finish. The peppermill comes with an unmarked stainless steel grinding mechanism. This is the early set with a metal salt grinder disk. All lates salt grinders from this series were made with white plastic.
From peppermill's production history many different types of exotic wood were taken from the jungles of Nicaragua, Brasil, British Honduras and East Africa - the world's rarest, most exotic wood, to create his famous high end limited edition tableware. Also, only top quality grinding mechanisms made of case-hardened steel were used. The durability of these mechanisms and their proven track record allows them to provide a lifetime guarantee on the grinding mechanism.
This 60+ years old piece is excellent for its age, near mint all original vintage working condition and it looks like it was barely used. The wood grain looks gorgeous! The natural finish and patina preserved beautifully with some very minor wear, but no damage. Both pieces are 5 1/4 in. (13.5 cm) tall and they are heavy 1 lb. 8 oz. (616 g)). Sold as is. The grinders are on the bottom of each mill. Both bottoms are marked with an embossed logo and it reads: " WOODLINE DENMARK - BK (copyright symbol). To fill each mill, the top must be removed to load peppercorns of salt accordingly. Please remember to never use the peppermill to grind the salt! Then take the top handle off, please unscrew the brass screw holder. Do the reverse to close it. Both mills were tested and they work great.
The set is very clean, comes from a smoke free environment and would be a perfect addition to any of mid-century, Eames style collection! Beautiful decorative object, useful piece of art, wonderful and very elegant gift as well as a great investment! With normal care it will last for generations...
