Description
Built into this traditional nickel plated coffee mill is a receiver for the freshly ground coffee - we can almost smell the mediterranean air!
These stunning handcrafted mills have been produced by a small family owned company in Thessaloniki in Northern Greece since the late 1970's. Derived from the design of a portable coffee mill given to Greek soldiers in the early 1900's, the grinding mechanism allows the user to change the coarseness of the grind, maximising aroma and fragrance of the coffee.
As these mills are made with brass, oxidisation over time will occur. While the result is unpredictable due to variations in air moisture, the mill will develop an attractive patina over time. The mills require some regular care, but with something this beautiful, you'll want to look after it!
