Bamboo and bronze pepper shaker, pp. 20th century. Curious and rare bamboo and bronze pepper shaker, made in Asia or Europe between the 19th and early 20th centuries. Large in size, this piece features a slender body carved with simple incisions and tribal borders. At the top, a bronze hand holds a ring. It works by a complete rotation: the body is held and the upper part is turned to activate the grinding mechanism, suggesting an internal millstone design. The lower part usually has an adjustable opening to determine the coarseness of the grind. Due to its features and mechanism, it appears to be a pepper shaker, although its design is unusual and its original function cannot be assured with certainty. Interesting collectible item.
