From France and dating to the 19th century, this large stone mortar would have been a constant presence in the kitchen, used for grinding garlic, herbs, and spices into pastes by hand. The form is deeply sculptural, with thick, hand-shaped sides that flare outward into subtle grips, making it easier to steady during use. Sylvie loves it kept within reach on the counter, ready for use or holding its place as it always has.
