Chiarugi

Living and working in Florence means, above all, breathing in its history, letting oneself be guided by an artistic memory which has been handed down through the centuries.

It was here, back in 1952 that Mario Chiarugi set up his business enterprise, seeking to express in the shapes and materials of his products the artistic heritage of the workshops of the Florentine master craftsmen.

The Chiarugi pepper mill, entirely MADE IN ITALY, is not simply a kitchen utensil, but an object you will be proud to possess, unique in terms of both quality and materials.

Wood is the traditional protagonist of the company's collections. European Beech, Cherry, Walnut, Oak, Rosewood and the rarer Olive are used, with a waxed or shiny surface finish to enhance the object and protect it against wear.

Other materials include acrylic, crystal and silver-plate, interrelated by a sophisticated design concept.

Pepper and salt all have specific characteristics which require a different type of grinding mechanisms : Pepper mills are built with steel mechanism, while salt calls for a ceramic mill.

All parts of the grinder have lifetime guaranty.
