This patented technology involves fully protecting the mill's walnut body in an acrylic envelope and represents the culmination of several years of research and development in partnership with a French injection moulding company. This technological breakthrough gives the Méribel salt mill a number of advantages. From an aesthetic viewpoint, the transparent acrylic magnifies the wood species, while in practical terms, the wood is protected against moisture to ensure intensive use. Produced in France and fitted with a lifetime-guaranteed salt mechanism, the Méribel salt mill is an essential instrument for both the kitchen and the table.
