Web-footed wonder.
Well, look who just waddled their way onto the table: this spice-grinding penguin pal. Behind that walnut and maple wood tuxedo, you’ll find a ceramic grinder, ready to tackle your toughest salt crystals (and peppercorns too). When you’re ready to sprinkle on the flavor, just turn that lil’ head back and forth. It’s a snap to refill, too, thanks to the flipper that pops on and off. Wanna hear another fun fact? This one’s Danish designed, handcrafted with love, and has been a staple in dining rooms across Denmark since the '50s (just like its feathery, toucan friend).
