The Paris set: one pepper mill, one salt mill; 18cm/7" tall beech wood in a natural blonde finish; fantastic u'Select grind adjustment system; gift boxed in a modern and very nice looking clear polypropelene box. Purchased separately these mills have a combined retail value of $90.00, making this set an especially good value.
This is a U-select update of Peugeot's best-selling Paris mill gift set. This has classic good looks and design that works in any dining room or kitchen. It's affordable, classy and of the highest quality. And I LOVE the U-select mechanism -- it REALLY works and is simple and effective... it makes setting the grind easy and consistent and it's still as rugged and simple as ever for long life and ease of use and maintenance.
Peugeot of France created the pepper grinder in 1842. The patented design of the grinding mechanism created by a company engineer for the first Peugeot pepper mills is still in use today, virtually unchanged. Often copied, but never equaled, the mechanism made of case hardened steel is designed to crack the peppercorns before the actual fine grinding process. The grooves on a Peugeot mechanism are individually cut into the metal, and then case hardened, making them virtually indestructible. The same unyielding commitment that goes into every Peugeot pepper mill mechanism is also evident in the stainless steel salt mechanism. Peugeot grinding mechanisms are the choice of food professionals and discerning cooks around the world. |
