About the Item
This stone mortar from the early 20th century was once used in a provincial kitchen to grind herbs, spices, rice, and other foods. Hand-carved from a solid block of limestone, the mortar has a minimally worked form that preserves the natural beauty of the stone. With minimalist appeal and a raw, unworked texture, the mortar is fantastic as a sculptural vessel or a tabletop planter for a single orchid.
