Guy Beardsley, a British engineer at Rolls-Royce, found himself stymied during the pandemic and set about designing a pepper grinder that is an homage to one belonging to his grandparents. These grinders are gorgeously finished in deep hues, solid cast iron, and will grind like no other grinder you've ever held. These are truly the final solution to your search for the perfect grinder. Be forewarned, however, that at 2+ lbs each, they also double as free weights!

Buy a good one so it will stay sharp and then you can offer fresh cracked pep to your guests forever. Thats the grindset.

Boring and predictable for me to start with a kitchen tool, but I simply don’t care. I’m not that picky about kitchen appliances, don’t have much loyalty to brands or specifics, but I think I would do crime for this peppermill. Shitty tools make you have a bad time cooking, and if you have a bad time cooking, you will hate doing it. Every try to get a significant amount of pepper from one of those pre-filled store-bought peppermills? It’s a BAD time! This well made peppermill is a JOY to use, and if you cook even a little, this will make all your food taste better, I promise.

mine are just on top of the stove hood except for the ones i use for baking, which are in a drawer by the flour etc
but i think my ideal would be by category, like:
herbs together, garlic powder next to onion powder, then baking spices, then spice mixes, then lesser used ones
also get salt and pepper grinders they feel fancy

As Sigur Ros began to slow down, polymath creative Jón Þór "Jónsi" Birgisson looked to other fragrant pastures. Available online or, if you're in ReykjavÃk, tucked away in an alley of the oldest part of the city called Fischersund is this range of unusual fragrances. Crafted from Icelandic herbs and materials (including, in one special edition called 4:45am, a barstool reduced to cinders) Fischersund fragrances smell like nothing else you're likely to find. Fresh, funky and original. Just like you, right?

The son of famed Adirondack designer Barbara Collum, prop master Douglas Collum was constantly pestered by his mother for a candle that looked like a branch which would adorn the homes she designed. Unable to fulfill her request, Collum finally turned to manufacturing a solution. This turned out to be extremely complicated because tree branches are never perfectly straight and there was no simple way to make a mold. Branches had to be soaked in water and straightened out before they could be cast. A decade of trial and error ultimately led to the long-burning Stick Candles which adorn the tables of those who enjoy organic forms. Are they pricey for candles? Sure. Will you see anything like them on someone else's table? Unlikely. (Collum's designs also make fantastic house warming gifts!)

A distinguished architect with a n'er do well son, Sir John Soanes was influential enough to arrange for an *act of parliament* to protect his home as a museum. Why? Because Soanes had traveled what the British considered the "ancient world", collecting antiquities for the purpose of training adult learners how to see and appreciate great art in all its forms. He packed his two interconnected homes - they'd be considered "brownstones" if they were in New York - creating a cabinet of curiosities on a grand scale. He even put yellow glass skylights to try to recreate the effect of "Mediterranean light" for those who might never be able to travel to the countries of origin whence he absconded with his treasures. The museum is a wonder on all levels and there's truly no other place like it.
