The 'Padre' mill is a highly collectible lathe-turned spice mill, designed and produced exclusively for Permanent Collection by Los Angeles-based designer, Ryan Preciado. The 'Padre' mill is one of two original forms by Preciado, the result of intuitive design process that includes 'sketching' in real-time. Using sustainably salvaged scrap walnut from his studio, the mill draws inspiration from the silhouette of the archetypal cylindrical pepper mill — whose form has been considered by celebrated designers from Memphis' Ettore Sottsass to Dansk's Jens Quistgaard. This piece's elegant shape has a gradually tapered body, with a top-turning grinder, playful knobbed 'hat', and a precision ceramic mechanism that can be adjusted from the bottom. A functional, sophisticated, everyday object, this sculptural tabletop piece is a statement on its own, or paired with its companion 'Madre' mill. Put salt in one, pepper in the other, or fill it with another favorite spice!

RYAN PRECIADO

RYAN PRECIADO

Ryan Preciado is a Los Angeles-based, Nipomo-born designer of Chumash Native American and Mexican heritage, whose work fluidly references both identities. Preciado is best known for highly lacquered pieces recalling the car culture he grew up with, as well as meticulously crafted furniture that evokes a childhood with his Native American grandmother, Donna, who ran a tiny Chumash Native American museum in Guadalupe, CA. Her emphasis on how the objects in the museum’s collection were “made to last in a thoughtful and caring way,” was an inspiration to Preciado.

At the age of 20, Preciado began working with Jory Brigham, a furniture maker in San Luis Obispo, CA, before relocating to Los Angeles. Under the mentorship of Ryan Conder of South Willard Gallery, he became an assistant to Peter Shire, the celebrated, LA-based Memphis Group furniture maker and designer. Preciado’s aim of making objects that are both disarming and inclusive, and which draw inspiration from his culture, family, and community, has led to a unique body of work. His designs reside in the permanent collection of LACMA and have been exhibited at Canada Gallery in NYC, among other venues.
