About the Item

Flemish mortar. Bronze. XVII century. Features brand. Mortar with a circular base with a mouth that extends outward from the two upper stripes and a body with slight entasis and a relief decoration of figurative motifs. In addition to a series of moldings in its external area, you can see two male protomes (heads with mustaches and non-human features) and a band with different elements in the lower part (roles, leaves, quadruped monsters). Note, also, a kind of circular “seal” (or so it seems), with letters (HLB / RA/TE) around a banner flanked by plant elements and placed on three oval objects. Compare the present example with those by P. van den Ghein from the Royal Carillon School “Jef Denyn” Museum in Mechelen (despite being earlier), a 17th century example from the Pharmacy Museum in Berlin (Germany), another in the Museum of the Pharmacy of the Complutense University of Madrid (Spain), etc. Weight: 4.6kg. · Size: 17x17x14 cm International Buyers – Please Note: for those articles that need Export Permits (those older than 100 years), the obtaining of the Permit will be processed without additional expenses (if you choose the seller sends it to you), but the period for the obtention of it may vary from 10 to 35 days.

Mortar with Inscriptions. Bronze, Spain, 1823

Located in Madrid, ES

Mortar with inscriptions. Bronze. Spain, 1823. Con maza. Mortar made of bronze with an enlarged mouth and a cone shaped body developed without discontinuity and with a decreasing diameter to the base; It has two handles or "pieces" towards the smooth decorative moldings that it has on the upper part. The piece presents, almost on the edge, an inscription (I AM FROM D GREGORIO OCANA ANO DE 1823) in capital letters and a date in roman with spaces between them; and the text (the other way around) “Mazon fecci”; both flanked by a simple molding above and another below. This large-sized mortar is of the type that is usually known as "hospital" because it is usually used for medicines in environments with many patients or in important apothecaries. Typologically, it follows the usual line in these examples of the Spanish school during the 19th century: smooth, with moldings and, as a general rule, without those ribs (or derivatives thereof) that used to appear in the previous ones. Compare, for example, with the large pharmacy mortar in the Municipal Museum-Archive of Calella (with inscription, ribs and human heads as handles), a large pestle...
