Brass Salt & Pepper Mills

Since 1977, these exquisite handcrafted mills have been produced by a family-run company in Thessaloniki, Northern Greece. With a design rooted in history, they were inspired by a robust, portable coffee mill created in the early 1900s for Greek soldiers in the field. Timeless craftsmanship meets enduring functionality. Each mill is sold separately.

Maintenance

Brass will naturally change appearance and develop an attractive patina over time. This normal oxidising process occurs unpredictably with touch and exposure to moisture and humidity. Regular care and cleaning are necessary to maintain the mills, and the contents should be kept fresh and dry.

Your mill will need some regular care and maintenance to keep it in good working order. It’s important to clean the mill regularly, keep its contents fresh, and avoid exposure to moisture. Never wash the mill in water or in the dishwasher!

Clean all parts with a small brush and a dry cloth. Only the plastic parts of the salt grinders can be cleaned separately in water to dissolve any clogged salt. Ensure all parts are thoroughly clean and dry before reassembling.

 

Cleaning and Polishing the Exterior

Brass is naturally resistant to corrosion, but like all metals, it will inevitably oxidise and change in appearance with touch and use, and through exposure to moisture and oxygen in the air. This change in appearance is unpredictable and may occur differently on various parts of the mill. This process is part of the metal’s nature and brings with it an attractive patina, but it requires regular care.

If you prefer to maintain a bright, polished look, most of the mills can be polished with an ordinary metal cleaner (such as Brasso or similar) using a soft cloth to polish the exterior.

The manufacturer provides a limited warranty, which does not cover changes in appearance or corrosion of the mills—these can be managed with regular care.
