I thought the pepper mill collection were part of a chess set. I would snap it up in an instant it they were... :(

I think my mother used to have those salt and pepper shakers. I won't tell her that they're worth something now. I think she threw them out a long time ago.

Robert Venturi is a hack! That dining set is horrendous.
