  Dansk reissue mill “Jane” now available on Amazon

  01.29.10 | Permalink | Comment?

  Finally, the mill “Jane” is available on Amazon.  I like this design the best out of the reissues, and it is based on the rarest of the designs they decided to reissue.  It’s a little “thicker” in the middle than the original, but still quite cool.

  Visit to Sam Kaufman Gallery

  Any serious Dansk collector should include a trip to the Sam Kaufman Gallery as part of a trip to the Los Angeles area.  I had the pleasure of visiting him and his gallery over the winter break on a road trip down to Southern California.
  First of all, the collection.  If both of my cameras hadn’t [...]

  Too bad Chanukah is almost over, cause there’s a new mill collection that just went up on eBay.  All metal Peugeot grinders, 25 mills, one price.  This is a nice collection with several mills that are quite rare.
  Check out the auction.

  S&P Index Still High

  As recent eBay activity shows, the auction prices of Dansk salt & peppers are still quite high.  Here’s some highlights from the last month or so.
  Despite the horrible photography, a super rare Quistgaard wenge mill sold for $837.99, which I think might be a record price for a JHQ mill.

  Giant Pepper Mill Collection

  I wrote about this collection a few months ago and now it has appeared for sale at 1st Dibs for the price of $21,000.  It’s an amazing collection, but here’s the big question: Is it worth as much as brand new Honda Accord?
  The math is pretty simple – with 70 mills it breaks down to [...]

  09.25.09 | Permalink | Comment?

  The new (as of March) Paul Smith store in San Francisco is really amazing.  Sure, it has Paul Smith clothing but it also has a great collection of new and vintage design goods which includes books, art, and a great collection of Danish Modern – especially Dansk teak and Lisa Larson ceramics.  Accompanying all those [...]

  New Dansk Mills – The Official Word

  08.19.09 | Permalink | 4 Comments

  I heard from Dansk and it is true – they are reissuing 5 of Jens Quistgaard’s salt shaker pepper mill combos as part of their Wood Classics series. The new mills look pretty good, and there are several interesting differences between these mills and the originals.  It sounds like Dansk channeled the spirit of JHQ [...]
