Review Nambé Hug 6-Inch Salt and Pepper Set / Nambe 6283:Marked by distinctive flared shape, these metal salt and pepper shakers fit together like perfect puzzle pieces. 6" Aptly named Hug, these two hourglass-shaped shakers make a romantic pair. One features a crescent-moon cutout along its length that fully embraces the other, which has a perfectly round top and bottom. Both of the shakers stand six inches tall, are quite heavy, and are utterly compelling both individually and as a snug-together unit. The crescent top features three holes, the round top just one (black and white plastic plugs underneath may be used to specify pepper or salt). The Hug set is a creation of one of Nambé's most prolific and award-winning designers, Karim Rashid. The metal shakers will not chip or crack, and will maintain their mirror finish as long as they are washed by hand, never in a dishwasher. Nambé was founded in 1951 in a village of the same name in scenic northern New Mexico. From the beginning, the company focused on hand-producing high-quality, functional items such as metal bowls and trays with great attention to timeless, modern design. Still made in the USA, Nambé's signature metal alloy is liquified, poured into a hand-made sand cast, and the resulting piece repeatedly polished and smoothed by hand. [+]Exceptional gifts for the most special of occasions, Nambé metal bowls and accessories are now joined by porcelain and crystal pieces, each flawlessly crafted. Nambé ware has won numerous design awards, has been shown in or recognized by nearly two dozen museums worldwide, and is part of the permanent collections of many prestigious institutions. -Ann Bieri.

Review Nambé Eva Zeisel Salt & Pepper / Nambe 6092:Looking like small, curvaceous bowling pins, the two identical metal shakers in this set are irresistible to pick up. The round bellies and long necks fit the hand beautifully, and each feels substantially hefty. A nice complement to her vases, the shaker set was designed for Nambé by Eva Zeisel, who, when she turned 100 in November 2006, was still regularly producing new works. Born in Hungary, the dynamic Zeisel was instrumental in modernizing ceramics in Germany and Russia, suffered imprisonment during the Stalin regime, and emigrated to the United States in 1938, where she began teaching at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn. Her Nambé designs, such as her Harmony and Unity vases and her signature metal bowl, are perennial favorites. The metal salt and pepper shakers should be washed by hand. Nambé was founded in 1951 in a village of the same name in scenic northern New Mexico. From the beginning, the company focused on hand-producing high-quality, functional items such as metal bowls and trays with great attention to timeless, modern design.

Review Peugeot Chateauneuf u-Select 9-1/2-Inch Pepper Mill, Black Matte / Peugeot PM20378:Wood with stainless steel accents, black matte finish. Bring the fresh taste and aroma of pepper to your meals. The patented French u'Select system enables you to adjust the grind on this handsome pepper mill, giving you a choice of 6 grinds from fine to coarse. The mechanism, which carries a lifetime warranty, is specifically designed to grind whole peppercorns. Comes partially filled with peppercorns. An exceptional gift for the salt or pepper connoisseur, Chateauneuf pepper and salt mills from Peugeot are traditionally styled of turned hardwood and handsomely accented with brushed, 18/10 stainless-steel bands. Also steel, the round ball nut on top of each mill unscrews the dome for filling with peppercorns and salt. Differing from other models, the Chateauneuf offers a U-Select feature, which designates six settings on the lower steel band of the pepper mill for precision grinding ranging from coarse to fine, and three settings on the salt mill. The other main difference between the salt and pepper mills lies in the grinding mechanism itself. Peugeot pepper mills use case-hardened-steel grinding heads with two sizes of grooves; the larger grooves crack the peppercorns in half and direct them into the smaller grooves, which grind them much more finely than most mills. [+]The grinding mechanism in Peugeot salt mills is purposefully constructed with 18/10 stainless-steel, which won't corrode from prolonged contact with the salt. Chateauneuf pepper and salt mills come in two sizes, 9 or 11-3/4 inches, and in several finishes, including matte black, matte red, and cherry. Care for a mill is easy: clean the exterior and inner chamber with a damp cloth; never immerse in water; avoid putting salt in the pepper mill, or grinding green or pink peppercorns by themselves (mixed with black is fine); and avoid damp types of salt (usually pink or gray) in the regular salt mill. Made in France, Peugeot mills are covered by a two-year replacement policy, while the grinding mechanism is covered by a lifetime warranty. Peugeot has been a leading manufacturer of pepper mills since the 1840s, and is a brand preferred by many restaurants and chefs. -Ann Bieri.
