DANSK Teak Pepper Mill Peppermill JHQ IHQ Quistgaard Denmark PEUGEOT RARE Eames
Here is your chance to start or upgrade your Dansk peppermill collection with the highest quality items. We are offering an EXTREMELY RARE and highly collectible vintage DANSK pepper mill / salt shaker - one of the earliest designs by Jens Harald Quistgaard for Dansk Designs, LTD from the 1960's. We are collecting Dansk pepper mill for almost 2 decades, but only few pepper mills of this shape were ever available for sale. This piece consist of Salt shaker and Pepper mill and was handcrafted of beautifully grained Siamese teakwood with a natural finish. The peppermill was made in Denmark and has the earliest type of metal grinding mechanism made by PEUGEOT, France. Jens Quistgaard used a top quality grinding mechanisms made of case-hardened steel by Peugeot Freres Lion, France. The grinder has an authentic insignia with lion and arrow and known to be the best on the market for almost 200 years (since 1840).

The durability of these mechanisms and their proven track record allows Peugeot to provide a lifetime guarantee on the grinding mechanism. The peppermill is 7 (18 cm) tall. This 50+ years old piece is in very good, all original vintage condition.

The natural finish and patina preserved beautifully. The octagonal top salt shaker has 6 holes. The internal tooth fill for both salt and pepper corns seen to have a nice fit, but we never tried to open for testing. The square bottom shows some might wear from use and it is mark with the earliest embossed logo: " Denmark JHQ ". The wood has some tiny nicks (please view all photos attached).

Nothing major but we have to mention it for the accuracy of the description. Other than that, there is no wood damage and it looks like the peppermill was barely used. Original patina looks very nice. Extremely rare find, especially in its beautiful all original condition. The piece is very clean, comes from smoke free environment and would be a perfect addition to any of mid-century, Eames style collection! Beautiful decorative object, useful piece of art, wonderful and very elegant gift as well as a great investment! With normal care it will last for generations...
