Pantone Pepper Mills & Kitchenwares

Cracked pepper? Care for some cracked pepper, sir? Freshly cracked pepper, madame?… Urgggh. How annoying are waiters with the whole cracked pepper thing? If only they asked me if I wanted pepper from a brightly coloured pepper mill instead of one of those dull wooden, oversized torture devices that they use at swanky restaurants, I might be more inclined to say yes.

Thankfully, this is now a reality, care of the clever chums at Typhoon Homewares. With a great selection of colours, including Black, Blue, Olive, Red and Pink, you can now impress your guests at your next dinner party and be assured they won’t say no to cracked pepper.

Typhoon also has a great range of Pantone inspired Kitchenwares including Aprons, Pot Holders, Oven Gloves, Tea Towels, Storage Jars and more Mugs.
