Permanent Collection Pepper Spitz - Walnut

This sculptural, functional pepper mill was conceived by Italian artist and designer, Martino Gamper, and crafted in Norfolk, UK from solid walnut wood fitted with a rust-resistant ceramic grinder that can be adjusted for other spices. Martino—who is part of our 'design family' (he created our Acqua e Vino glassware set)—was inspired by the mountainous landscape of his home region in the north of Italy. Though the word 'spitz' translates to 'peak,' the forms are also intended as an homage to Rudolf Steiner's anthroposophic design principles.
