One-Of-A-Kind

An 18th century Spanish marble mortar with the kind of weight and presence that modern kitchen tools can only dream of. Hand-carved from solid stone, it was originally used for grinding herbs, spices, garlic, and medicinal mixtures long before anything came in a jar. The surface shows centuries of use, with a softly worn interior and subtle chisel marks that make it feel more sculptural than utilitarian. Perfect on a countertop, filled with flaky salt, or used as a beautiful catchall for cloves of garlic and lemons within reach.
