Ambrosia Maple Pepper Mill and Salt Shaker Set


Enjoy the intense and fresh aroma and flavor of freshly ground pepper, do it in style, and without breaking the bank - this smaller salt shaker and pepper mill set is 6" high and 2.5" in diameter. Made from ambrosia maple, one of the most beautiful woods there is - it's regular maple, left moist and warm and exposed to the elements after the tree dies, so that the ambrosia beetle can attack the tree. The beetle bores into the tree, bringing ambrosia fungus spores with it. The fungus attacks and stains the tree and then the beetle can eat the fungus as it reporduces. The net result: Beautifully figured wood.

This set sells for $90.00. 8" and 12" sizes are also available, as are salt mills.
