I spent way too much time researching salt and pepper mills. After deciding on Peugeot, I shopped Ebay and other discount sites...AMAZON wins, as usual.
Save yourself some time and buy Peugeot.

The color of these mills are absolutly HORRIBLE. No resonable human would allow these on a dinner table. The color can only be described as Reminiscent of vomit. I have returned them and will try my best to forget that I have ever seen them!!!!!
Still the best mills; still the best finish September 12, 2008

The classic curry color is a traditional French kitchen color, applied as a fairly hard lacquer. That makes it easy to live with and very easy to keep clean. The other finishes, esp. the dark stained ones, are comparatively fragile and harder to keep clean, except the black lacquer. The mills in the so-called 'natural finish' have almost no finish at all and tend to pick up any residue around. They are also hard to clean, whereas these Classic Curry lacquered mills wipe clean with a cloth or paper towel.
Peugeot mechanisms are flawless: Just adjust the top nut to loose for coarse or tight for fine and then grind. Silly people pay TWICE as much for Peugeot's U'Select model, on which one twists a lower ring rather than adjust the traditional top nut. Talk about nuts!
These old pattern Peugeot's last for decades of daily use, so they are actually very, very cheap.
Common sea salt or kosher salt works fine in the salt mill.
Any common or fancy pepper works great for the pepper mill.
Keep your eyes open for cheap plastic funnels to aid in filling.

I purchased these after buying a slightly larger one at a brick and mortar store.
The Salt Mill is not especially remarkable. It works well, but it wasn't really special. It does have great heft to it, just right. The matching set looks wonderful together.
The Pepper Mill is brilliant. It cracks well, and you can easily adjust the coarseness of the grind. It, too, has the perfect weight. Both mills are made of wood, and coated with a durable layer of yellow lacquer.
I would happily buy this set again, it would make a great wedding gift.

This is the third set of s&p mills I've purchased. The price and quality are unbeatable. I travel to Paris once a month and priced this exact set; the best price I could find was 69euros. That's over $100. Peugeot is a very well known name, and the curry color is a beautiful French classic. The working mechanism on the set is very reliable, too. I, honestly, can't say a bad thing about this purchase, and highly recommend it.
