Each piece is handmade from natural materials, so grain, color, and finish are unique to every piece. The photos show the exact piece you will receive.
Details
A round mortar turned by hand from a single block of solid Tunisian olive wood, with a matching wooden pestle. The mortar has a soft, rounded shape and bold olive wood grain: dark brown lines swirling over honey-coloured wood, with a few small natural knots. On one side a fine natural line runs through the grain, part of the character of the wood.
- Size: mortar approx. 14.5 cm in diameter
- Included: mortar and pestle
- For crushing garlic, herbs, spices and pepper, or making pesto and sauces
The photos show the exact piece you will receive, from every side. Every piece is made by hand, so the grain and shape vary from one mortar to another. Handmade in Tunisia, checked by us in Italy.
Care: wash by hand with warm water and mild soap and dry straight away; do not soak or put in the dishwasher. Now and then, refresh the wood with a little food-safe oil.
Materials + Care
Our wood pieces are crafted from solid olive wood, prized for its density, tight grain, and natural durability; ceramic-tile pieces are finished with hand-set, kiln-fired tiles set in an olive wood frame.
Hand wash with mild soap and warm water and dry immediately — do not soak or use the dishwasher. Every few months, condition wood surfaces with a food-safe mineral oil or beeswax to keep the grain from drying out, and keep pieces away from direct heat and prolonged sunlight.
