They will fit any kitchen décor and are easy to care for. Just wipe the exterior of the mill with a soft cloth to clean.

• Use peppercorns from the piper nigrum family such as white, black (Lampong, Tellicherry, Malabar) or green
• Do not use pepper mill to grind salt, herbs, seeds, pre-ground pepper or any other spice
• Pink peppercorns may only be used as part of a peppercorn blend to a maximum of 15% pink
• Do not use pickled or brined peppercorns as they will clog the mechanism in the mill.
