Question: These look like they are black. Is that true or are they dark brown? Thanks----
Document: These salt and pepper shakers were bought to go with my new dinning table, not as dark as these, as these s&p shakers are dark brown, and almost &#34;look&#34; black&#34;, but they arene't.....but they are so, so beautiful and I absolutely love them. Well made with wood, pepper mill mechanism works flawlessly and all in all, I am very pleased.
This set is just the right size for the table. The peppermill grinds smoothly and produces a good amount of pepper for not alot of effort. The finish is such a dark brown to be almost black - and was exactly as described.
For the price these are excellent; no complaints here. The salt comes out not too slow but not too fast, and the grinder is easy to use with minimal-to-no pepper &#34;crumbs&#34; left on the table when you go to pick it up. The wood is dark brown (nearly black) and looks nice on any table.
I'm not a pepper mill snob. I was just looking for salt and pepper shakers to go with a new everyday dish pattern that does not yet offer hostess pieces. My dishes have black accents, and these go perfectly. They are very dark brown, and I do love fresh ground pepper.
We use this set at our dining table and are used daily. The color is a very dark brown and we like that the coarseness of the pepper can be adjusted. They are easy to clean and adding salt and pepper is easily done. They are a great addition to our set at a great price.
I really loved these online, they looked perfect, but when I got them they look more black than brown, and the top of the pepper mill looked bitten.
These are very pretty and seem sturdy but the color is just a tad too dark for my taste. They almost look black.
The color looks pretty accurate -- a very dark brown. The grinder is very smooth, and the salt shaker works great, too. No complaints.
These are well made, as to be expected from Olde Thompson. Easy to fill. Pepper mill is easy to adjust grind. The color is great for that busy kitchen near the stove, etc. The dark rich brown doesn't show off any splashes etc. Easy to clean.
These  shakers are everything I wanted. They are just as beautiful as I would have chosen in person. I love the rich black. Thanks!!!!!!!! !
Answer: They are so dark brown they do look black.
