Cartridge Salt & Pepper Grinders

This stunning salt and pepper grinder set is crafted from Japanese Tamo ash in a brown and black stain with stainless steel fittings. The ceramic grinder sections are adjustable from coarse to fine.

Designed to resemble shotgun cartridges, these distinctive grinders make an ideal present for a shooting fan, as well as a witty addition to a country weekend lunch.

Tamo Ash has spectacular, almost three-dimensional figured grains, developed when strong vines encircle their trunks. This natural strangling restricts the flow of nutrients so the tree grows in spurts, which shows up in the grain. The Japanese eventually learned to lash ropes around saplings to reproduce the figure naturally made by vines.

These grinders come as a set, presented in Forwood Design gift packaging.
