Tre Spade, was founded in 1894, has always been a family business with a strong dedication to handcrafted production with its roots in the green hills of Canavese, a small region North of Turin, Italy. Tre Spade has a long tradition of quality.

While initially only producing hot-forged tools, the company began making coffee grinders soon afterwards, which quickly grew into their main business. It acquired market leadership and has maintained that position for over seventy years.

In the 1920’s the company started producing pepper mills - both the inner mechanism (the heart of the object) and the wooden body.

TRE SPADE pepper and salt mills are made from traditional Italian products from PEFC-certified beech wood, guaranteeing correct and sustainable wood and forest management through rigorous environmental, social and economic standards.

The pepper mill mechanisms are made with:

• TRE SPADE conic mechanisms of special tempered steel with mechanically produced precision teeth, and come with a 20 year guarantee.

• Steel shaft with anti-rust surface coating. The salt mill mechanisms are made with:

• TRE SPADE conic ceramic mills made in Italy.

• Aluminium shaft.

For over a century, Tre Spade has grown to become a successful and trusted brand in the industrial and residential kitchens. Now Tre Spade is pleased to announce its return to the customer’s table, with a new selection of salt and pepper mills. In collaboration with a Turin design studio, Tre Spade has re-thought the look and functionality of one of its most traditional products.

The pepper mills’ essence lies in the exclusive conic mechanism in tempered steel, which has received numerous awards for its functionality, precision and reliability.

Now new forms and shapes have been developed, taking inspiration from the classic Tre Spade products of the 1950s. The result is an exclusive pepper mill that brings maximum functional and aesthetic satisfaction to those who use it, offering a full experience of the aroma and perfume of pepper of every origin and flavour.
