Orb Grinder
A ceramic CrushGrind mechanism inside a turned beech sphere — seasoning reduced to one clean gesture.
Gareth Neal's Orb Grinder for Case sets a spherical top on a cylindrical solid beech base, sized to sit in the hand. The adjustable ceramic CrushGrind mechanism moves from fine to coarse by turning the wheel at the base, and it handles salt or pepper equally well. Offered in natural beech or black stain.

Common Questions
How do I adjust the grind coarseness?
Turn the wheel at the base of the grinder. The ceramic CrushGrind mechanism adjusts smoothly from fine to coarse for salt, pepper, or dried spices.
How do I refill the Orb Grinder?
Pull off the spherical top section to expose the chamber, fill it with salt, peppercorns, or spices, and press the top back into place.
Does it work for both salt and pepper?
Yes. The ceramic mechanism is corrosion-free, so one grinder handles salt, peppercorns, or dried herbs — many buyers pair one natural and one black-stained grinder.
