About the Item
This striking piece is an antique rice mortar from Java, meticulously hand-carved from a single block of hardwood. Dating back over a century, it bears the rich marks of time—a weathered surface, deep grain, and an organic patina that can only be formed through decades of use and exposure. Originally used in traditional rice preparation, its robust form and soulful character now lend themselves beautifully to modern interiors. Whether used as a low coffee table, a pedestal base, or appreciated solely as a sculptural object, this mortar bridges function and art. The aged texture and natural imperfections celebrate its utilitarian past while making it a statement piece in any contemporary or rustic setting. A timeless relic of Indonesian heritage, reimagined for curated living spaces.
