18th C. Spanish Hand-Carved Stone Mortar (or Planter)

A Spanish hand-carved stone mortar from the 18th century. This antique mortar from Spain, once used to grind various ingredients for cooking or medicinal purposes, is nicely sized standing approximately 19.5" in height. It has an overall rounded shape with flat bottom. This piece is nicely weighted, has a lovely patina, and is missing stone along one top side (as can be seen in images).
