Steampunk pepper grinder made of mystery wood

Pepper grinder in mystery wood. It’s from a leftover scrap from a bowl blank that was turned long ago. The steampunk / Antique look grinder mechanism measures 2" in diameter x 4-3/8" tall and features an Antique Copper finish, cast metal parts, and a knurled disc that adjusts for coarse to fine granules. Peppercorns are loaded through a sliding door on the body of the mechanism. Total height is approximately 8 inches. Approximately 3 inches across at the widest point. In order to protect the mechanism, we only ship this item USPS Priority Mail.

DO NOT turn the finial on the very top of the grinder. It keeps the spring that controls the tension for the grinding adjustment in place. If you unscrew the finial, the spring will go flying, and you may never see it again.
