Large Carved Mortar

£240.00

A beautifully carved heavy mortar. Originally used for grinding spices and other ingredients.

Incredibly sculptural, this piece is multifunctional, it can be used both as a side table or as a large planter. The piece features two interesting carvings, firstly the initials ‘B.S’ and a second more intricate symbol nearer it’s base.

Due to the style of the engravings we believe the piece to be of European descent, likely dating to the 18th century.

Sourced in the UK.

This piece measures 50cm tall, the top is 25cm wide.
