Description from the seller

Set of 3 Macael marble mortars with ergonomic handle

Elegant and functional mortars made from authentic Macael marble, a natural stone with great historical prestige from the Macael range (Almería, Spain). This marble has been recognized since antiquity for its purity, resilience, and fine grain, having been used in high-level architecture and decorative arts. Its light color and high density make it an ideal material for traditional and durable kitchen utensils.

Each mortar has compact and practical dimensions:

* Height: 10 cm
* Diameter: 9 cm

Includes an ergonomic-designed handle (hand) of 12 cm in length, which allows for a comfortable and secure grip, facilitating crushing without excessive effort.

### Advantages of the Macael marble mortar

* High hardness and weight: ensures stability during use and effective grinding.
* Non-porous surface: does not absorb odors or flavors, ideal for spices, herbs, seeds, and garlic.
* Excellent grinding capacity: its fine grain allows for homogeneous pastes and maximal release of natural aromas.
* Exceptional durability: robust piece designed to last for generations.
* Timeless aesthetics: combines functionality with an elegant, artisanal appearance.

Mortars may vary slightly from the photos, as each one is made from a different piece of MARBLE.

A classic kitchen utensil, perfect for daily use as well as for collectors of traditional natural stone objects. Ideal for those who value quality, authenticity, and noble materials.
