Robert Welch Palm Satin Medium Salt & Pepper Mills with Tray
This complete set brings together two essential seasoning tools with thoughtful organisation. The Palm Satin Medium Salt and Pepper Mills feature Robert Welch's signature fluted design in brushed satin 18/10 stainless steel, paired with a matching stainless steel tray designed to catch loose grounds and provide a designated home for both mills on your table or worktop.
The brushed satin finish offers a subtle matte appearance that resists fingerprints and water marks more effectively than mirror-polished surfaces, maintaining a clean appearance with minimal maintenance. Both mills house CrushGrind ceramic mechanisms - Danish-engineered grinding systems that adjust from fine to coarse with a turn of the grey wheel at the top. The ceramic construction resists corrosion and maintains sharpness over time, whilst the top-fill design allows refilling without dismantling the base mechanisms. Clear colour coding - black collar and base for pepper, white for salt - eliminates confusion during cooking or at the table.
The included stainless steel tray serves a practical purpose: catching the stray grounds that accumulate around mill bases during use. This keeps your surfaces clean and creates visual cohesion with the mills' brushed satin finish. The tray is dishwasher safe for easy cleaning, whilst the mills require only a dry microfibre cloth to maintain their appearance.

- Complete set: Salt mill, pepper mill, and coordinating tray for organised table or worktop presentation
- Fluted Palm design: Brushed satin 18/10 stainless steel with distinctive fluting that matches the Palm cutlery range

- Lifetime guarantee: Robert Welch's commitment to both materials and mechanism quality on mills
- Gift presentation: Complete set arrives in gift box, ideal for weddings, housewarmings, or special occasions
Designed for those who value coordinated kitchen equipment and practical organisation, particularly suited to those who prefer a subtle satin finish over high-gloss surfaces. Whether as part of the Palm collection or as a standalone statement set. Also available as individual mills if preferred.
What Customers Ask About the Palm Satin Medium Salt & Pepper Mill Set
Why buy the set rather than individual mills?
The set includes a matching stainless steel tray designed to catch loose grounds, keeping your table or worktop clean. The tray coordinates with the brushed satin finish of the mills and provides a designated space for both pieces. The set also arrives in gift-ready packaging, making it ideal for weddings or housewarmings.
What's the difference between Palm Satin and Palm Bright finishes?
Palm Satin has a brushed satin finish with a subtle matte appearance that resists fingerprints and water marks. Palm Bright has a mirror-polished finish with a high-gloss reflective surface. Both have identical dimensions, mechanisms, and functionality - the choice is purely aesthetic preference.
What's the purpose of the tray?
The stainless steel tray catches stray salt and pepper grounds that can accumulate around the base of mills during use. This keeps your surfaces spotless and provides a dedicated home for the mills on your table or worktop.
How do I distinguish between the salt and pepper mills?
The pepper mill has a black collar and base, whilst the salt mill has a white collar and base. This colour coding is clearly visible when the mills are in use or stored on the tray.
Is the tray dishwasher safe?
Yes, the stainless steel tray is dishwasher safe. Wash on a short hot cycle at 65-75°C using quality all-in-one tablets. Keep rinse aid topped up and avoid washing with non-stainless steel metals which can cause rust staining.
Are the mills dishwasher safe?
No, the mills should not be submerged in water or placed in the dishwasher as this would damage the internal grinding mechanisms. Clean the mill exteriors with a dry microfibre cloth only. The tray, however, is dishwasher safe.
Can I adjust the grind size on both mills?
Yes, both mills feature CrushGrind ceramic mechanisms that are easily adjustable from fine to coarse. Turn the grey adjusting wheel at the top of each mill to change the grind setting.
How much do the mills hold?
The pepper mill holds approximately 50g of peppercorns, whilst the salt mill holds approximately 100g of coarse sea salt. Both feature top-fill designs for easy refilling without dismantling the base.
Does the satin finish show fingerprints?
No, the brushed satin finish is more resistant to fingerprints and water marks compared to mirror-polished finishes. This makes the set easier to maintain a clean appearance with minimal maintenance.
Can I buy replacement mills individually?
Yes, individual Palm Satin Medium Salt and Pepper Mills are available separately. The tray is designed to accommodate the medium size mills from the Palm Satin range.
What does the lifetime guarantee cover?
Robert Welch provides a lifetime guarantee on the Palm mills, covering manufacturing defects and mechanism failures. This reflects the quality of both the stainless steel construction and the CrushGrind ceramic mechanisms.

Care & Use Instructions
Mills Care
Daily cleaning: Clean the exterior of both mills with a dry microfibre cloth after use. The brushed satin finish is more forgiving of fingerprints than mirror-polished surfaces, but for stubborn marks, dampen the cloth slightly and dry the mills immediately. Never submerge the mills in water or place them in the dishwasher, as this will damage the internal grinding mechanisms.
Refilling: Both mills feature top-fill designs. Simply unscrew the top of each mill to add peppercorns (approximately 50g for pepper) or coarse sea salt (approximately 100g for salt). Do not use fine table salt in the salt mill as it will not grind properly.
Adjusting grind size: Turn the grey adjusting wheel at the top of each mill. Tightening creates a finer grind, whilst loosening produces a coarser grind. Adjust according to your cooking or serving needs.
Cleaning between spices: If you wish to switch contents in either mill, empty the existing spice, add a tablespoon of coarse salt, adjust the grinder to fine, and grind until no more salt emerges. Remove any excess salt before adding new contents.
Deep cleaning the mechanisms: For thorough cleaning, unscrew the grey adjusting wheel on each mill and carefully remove the ceramic cone, ensuring the spring stays securely in place. Wipe loose dust from the cone with a cloth or brush, then wash in water. Dry thoroughly before replacing - any moisture can affect grinding performance.
Tray Care
Dishwasher cleaning: The stainless steel tray is dishwasher safe. Wash on a short hot cycle at 65-75°C using quality all-in-one dishwasher tablets (Fairy Platinum Plus recommended for UK customers). Keep rinse aid topped up and use salt for hard water areas. Avoid washing with non-stainless steel metals as this can cause rust staining. Clean dishwasher filters regularly and use a proprietary dishwasher cleaner periodically.
Hand washing: Wash in warm soapy water with a microfibre cloth or non-abrasive brush. Avoid soaking and always dry thoroughly immediately after washing. Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners as these will scratch the surface.
Stubborn stains: For any stubborn stains on the tray, use a proprietary stainless steel cream cleaner such as Bar Keepers Friend Power Cream to restore shine.
