It looks good but I can't help agreeing with Clipa. The scale of the 
pepper mill is too big, for the home. (Are you sure that you're not from 
Texas, where everything is bigger and better?) :-P

LOL. From the /Hall of the Mountain King/ perhaps.

actually it's the rack and utensils that need scaling (all my attention 
has been on pepper-mill) ... in this scene the bottom of the accent 
stripe on the tile is 6 inches. i used a rl example for the mill design 
so i think the proportions and size are good for this scene, once i get 
the utensils the correct size i should be ok. as far as it looking like 
a gumball machine ... other than possibly the chrome material i don't see

I think that it is the scale and the brightly coloured peppercorns. In 
the UK, we mostly see very dark brown, lighter dark brown or off white 
ones. They also are quite dried up and gnarly.

None that would somehow match the greenish ones in your image though. 
And most of them share a good deal of "gnarliness".
