Salt and Pepper Set

Step aside, shakers: here’s a new way to season with salt and pepper. Resting on a natural oak tray, the sharp Japanese-style grater makes a fine powder out of natural Himalayan salt rocks – and out of Java long peppers, a spicy, distinctive cousin of the familiar black peppercorns.

The creator behind Rivsalt got his idea for the product after dining at a Japanese restaurant in Beijing. The Swedish designer launched his concept almost a year later to the fanfare of chefs and design nerds worldwide.
