Solid European hardwood (e.g. Black Walnut, Golden Cherry), anodized aluminum (lid), medical-grade stainless steel (slicing discs), and food-safe silicone seals.

The aluminum lid is not part of the grinding path — your herbs never touch aluminum.

Yes — 100% pure. That’s what Stona is all about.

Because the micro-blades lie beneath the surface of the stainless-steel disc, your herbs are sliced cleanly — without any abrasion from the wood.

Only medical-grade stainless steel and hardwood ever touch your herbs.

No metal-to-metal or plastic-to-plastic friction — just pure herb and a perfect grind.

No. The wood guides the motion; it doesn’t do the cutting.

Because the micro-blades sit beneath the surface of the stainless-steel disc, the wood never makes contact with the micro-blades— it doesn’t get worn down or shaved off.

The blades do the work and stay sharp for years.

Not really. The slicing discs are extremely durable.

The micro-blades are embedded below the surface, so they don’t dull easily and stay sharp for a long time even with regular use.

If grinding feels less smooth, clean the disc with isopropyl alcohol, rinse, and dry. If that doesn’t help, it might be time for a replacement disc.

Choosing between Black Walnut and Golden Cherry is about feel and character — both woods offer the same strength and performance.

Black Walnut: deep, rich brown tone with a classic look.

Golden Cherry: lighter, warm yellow-brown hue that feels bright and natural.

Both are equally durable — just choose the one that fits your style.

Yes. Each jar is mouth-blown in Europe. Wall thickness and color can vary slightly — that’s the beauty of craftsmanship, not a defect.

Stona grinder’s wood is protected with a durable, water-resistant hardwax finish.

Simply wipe it with a soft cloth dampened with water or isopropyl alcohol.

Each Stona piece is handcrafted in small batches in our Berlin workshop — no mass production, no shortcuts.

Craftsmanship takes time, especially when every piece of wood is carefully selected and finished by hand. That’s why certain variants may sell out for a while.

We restock new woods and colors occasionally — the best way to stay updated is by subscribing to our newsletter.

You don’t need to. Every Stona Grinder is built to last and doesn’t require spare parts out of the box.

The wood is sealed with a durable, food-safe finish that stays beautiful for a long time.

Wood Balm isn’t necessary, but it’s great to use from time to time — especially after a deep clean — to reduce friction and keep the surface smooth and protected.

Absolutely — it’s there.

Your grinder includes two slicing discs: one fine and one medium.

The fine disc is cleverly hidden inside the top lid. Simply open the lid and take a look — voilà!

The Stona Grinder uses a precision slicing mechanism, not teeth — so the motion feels different from a traditional grinder.

For the best results:

1. Use only light pressure. The grinder is designed to do the work for you. Apply gentle, even pressure — pressing too hard can compress your herbs instead of slicing them.
2. Check the moisture of your herbs. Herbs that are too moist won’t slice evenly in any grinder. Let them air-dry a bit before use.
3. Don’t overfill the chamber. Get to know your Stona first — start with smaller amounts to get a feel for how it moves. Believe us, Stona can handle more herbs than any traditional grinder — but overfilling slows the slicing action and takes away that effortless feel.
4. Clean occasionally. If you’ve been a little lazy with cleaning, no worries — resin buildup happens. A quick wipe with an alcohol cleaning pad brings back that smooth, effortless spin.

If your herbs don’t grind well with a Stona — no grinder will. 😉

If you’ve checked everything and it still doesn’t feel right, reach out to us at hey@iamstona.com — we’ll help you troubleshoot.

• Check that the O-ring and T-seal are seated correctly and not twisted.
• The lid should fit snugly on the wood — it shouldn’t rotate freely.

If it still feels off, contact us at hey@iamstona.com, and we’ll help you.

Yes. The Stonito closes with a food-safe silicone seal that keeps your herbs fresh and protected.

The wooden lid is naturally breathable — it prevents trapped moisture and helps maintain the perfect balance for long-term storage.

Absolutely. The Stonito shares the same mouth-blown smoked glass as the grinder.

You can pop the glass straight off your grinder and seal it with the Stonito lid — freshness and design in perfect harmony.

Each jar holds roughly 80 ml (2.7 fl.oz) — ideal for daily use and designed to look beautiful on display.

Each Stonito combines mouth-blown smoked glass and a hand-finished solid wood lid (the same woods used for the Stona Grinder).

Every piece is unique — slight variations in shape or tone are part of the craftsmanship.

Clean the glass with a standard glass cleaner or isopropyl alcohol (70–99%) if needed.

Wipe the wooden lid with a dry or slightly damp cloth — never soak it.

Let all parts dry completely before reassembling.

Yes. The mouth-blown glass can safely go in the dishwasher.

Still, we recommend hand-cleaning to preserve its smoked finish and keep it looking beautiful for years.

Yes. Like all our products, the Stonito is produced in small batches. We restock new wood types from time to time — the best way to stay updated is by subscribing to our newsletter.
