About the Item
This petite pinewood vessel is an early 20th century mortar once used daily in a provincial kitchen to grind herbs, spices, and condiments.

Aged with weathered texture and a rich patina, the mortar is ideal today as a tabletop planter or decorative vessel. Bottom of mortar has worn through.
