For the Oslow design trio behind Norway Says, it’s about using a simple language to express a complex idea. The composition of differently sized parts reflects the use of the mill—from the gripped element to where the contents are stored—be it salt, pepper or any other spice to grind. The highest grade beech wood is stained and lacquered, and maker Muuto includes a 25-year guarantee on the grinding mechanism. Best of all, the sculptural quality of this every day essential makes it a visual pleasure to keep it at hand on the kitchen counter or dining table.
