White Marble Mortar And Pestle
White Marble Mortar and Pestle. Approx 12cm in size, and 1.3kg in weight. Made in Northern India. The Pestle & Mortar is probably one of mankind\'s earliest innovations. Described as \'the original food processor\' the pestle and mortar were widely used in the prehistoric world. Neolithic/Bronze Age examples have been found in the Vale of Glamorgan and evidence suggests they would have been used to crush and grind herbs, spices and seeds just as they are used in kitchens today.
