From Peppermill Wiki
My sister named this style "Pepperbot" because it looks like a small robot. According to her, it says "pepper is my blood."
[edit] Variations
- Early versions have 7 salt holes arranged in a circle (no center hole), and have an early make Peugeot grinder.
- After the Peugeot grinding mechanism was phased out, the edges on the part are much more rounded.
- Later versions made in Thailand and Malaysia are not staved, but are instead made out of a solid piece of teak. The 6 salt holes are kept, but they're moved much closer to the center of the piece.
