Bisetti Messina Pepper Mill with Pewter Finish, 8.86-Inch, Silver

The craftsmanship of turned wood, which is typical of Strona Valley and the towns on the northern sides of Lake Orta, has a long-standing tradition. Despite improvements in production methods in the 19th century, such as the use of hydraulic systems and turning machinery, Bisetti remains committed to preserving the handcrafted nature of their products. Established in 1945, Bisetti is one of the few companies that still produces table and kitchen tools using turned wood.

Bisetti combines traditional craftsmanship with modern equipment, ensuring that each product is made entirely in their facility to maintain the highest quality standards. Unlike many other companies, Bisetti has not outsourced production to the Far East, prioritizing the "Made in Italy" label and upholding their commitment to quality.

The company also prioritizes sustainability by using FSC-certified timber, which helps protect global forest resources and ensures a better future for both people and the environment.

One of Bisetti's notable products is the pepper mill, which features a mechanism made of hardened steel with a double row of grinding teeth. This design effectively holds and guides peppercorns for a perfect grind. The mill body is made of beechwood with a pewter finish, and a zinc coating protects the system from oxidation while providing sharpening and wear resistance. It is recommended to hand wipe these mills with a soft cloth for maintenance.

Bisetti offers a 10-year warranty on the grinding mechanism, and their products meet the safety standards set by the EC and FDA for food contact. These items are made in Italy and imported by Tomson CASA.
