Description
Heavy antique-style mortar and pestle crafted from solid brass with a warm, aged patina. The mortar features a classic bell-shaped form with a flared rim, two rounded side handles, and subtle horizontal band detailing. The matching pestle has a substantial club-shaped design with a bulbous grinding end and central grip ring. Traditionally used in kitchens and apothecaries for grinding herbs, spices, and medicines. Likely dating to the early–mid 20th century. Measurements: Mortar 5" H × 5" diameter opening; Pestle 9" L. Condition: Good vintage condition with expected age-related wear and patina.
