Spring of Copenhagen The Pepper Bird Original Grinder in MahoganyThe Pepper Bird is a design icon that is both functional and decorative. Its a beautiful example of the way quality handcraft and whimsical design can interact to achieve perfection. The Pepper Bird and Salt Penguin fit together perfectly, and these two design icons have formed an inseparable pair since the late 1950s.It makes a perfect wedding gift, birthday present or house warming for people with an eye for Danish design icons.The Pepper Bird is a Danish, patent-protected quality pepper mill crafted in mahogany, ash, maple and walnut.Created by the self-taught Danish designer Sven-Erik Tonn-Petersen (Tonn-P), it uses the Danish-patented Toucan Pepper Grinder as grinding mechanism.The Pepper Bird was designed and first produced in the late 1950s and quickly became a favourite in Danish homes. The Pepper Bird brings your table to life, its amusing, decorative and a delight for kids but still functional.After some years of great popularity the Pepper Bird gradually disappeared from view.Still, it had already become a design icon and in later years many design aficionados eagerly sought out original Pepper Birds at flea markets and antique stores. So when Spring Copenhagen relaunched it in 2015, the Pepper Bird rapidly became a neo-classic.The Pepper Bird is again a recognisable everyday icon that brings life and joy not only to Danish dining rooms but dining rooms around the world.
