Earliest and rarest variant of Jens Harold Quistgaard\'s \"UFO\" pepper mill and salt shaker. Rare Woods - made from Muyenye Approx. 7\" tall Stamped \"Denmark JHQ\" on the bottom Outstanding condition, with only a few negligible light marks from very light use.Please view all photos carefully for condition. I have not tried to remove the top so there are still some peppercorns inside. From the most authoritative website on all things Quistgaard pepper mills: The second mill from the left is another Rare Woods UFO specimen, made from Mutenye. Its saucer has been smoothed at the outer edge, most likely a manufacturing requirement to mask the fact that the saucer is made up of two pieces of wood, with a horizontal butt joint at the outer perimeter of the saucer shape. The top of the saucer is smooth - no screws or plugs, apart from seven salt holes. This mill uses the fragile tooth-fill mechanism (see above). The flared out neck around the tooth-fill connection is most likely a practical consideration, taking into account that separating the two parts of this mill requires quite a bit of finessed twisting and pulling.Shipped quickly via USPS.
