stone mill
Old flour maker
A stone mill is a mill that grinds grain between two large circular stones, one stationary and one rotating.
Before modern steel roller mills, stone mills were the primary means of producing flour.
The term now often signals traditional or artisanal milling: stone-milled flour, an old stone mill converted to a restaurant.
