Stone cold awesome!

The flour mill is easily an incredibly old invention from possibly the stone age. Two massive discs of stone that run against each other, grinding grains of wheat between to a fine powder that we refer to as flour. There’s nothing sophisticated about the mill, but there’s also no reason for it NOT to look sophisticated. The Millithic Stone Mill gives a makeover to an age-old product. What essentially is two stone discs with a rudimentary handle on the top for rotating is now a slick looking product with two stones hidden behind a matte black exterior. It comes with a foldable handle, compacting the design… and even a neat looking flour reservoir. Boy, our ancestors would be proud!
