9" Bradford Pear Offset Peppermill with Copper Metal Powder

This is a beautiful piece of figured Bradford Pear that makes a stunning wooden peppermill. What makes it even more stunning is the addition of an offset layer which creates a very unique look. The mill was made from a single piece of solid wood, the offset layer is not a separate piece that was cut out and glued back in place. This piece of Pear had a few cracks that I carved out and filled with epoxy mixed with Copper Metal powder. I think the Copper color compliments the Pear color well. I also added a few extra carvings for contrast and balance. The pictures show the mill from all 4 sides. The body of the mill measures 9" tall x 2-1/2" diameter. I use 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. 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! Use and care instructions are provided with every pepper mill.
