Description from the seller
Imitates the period from the 17th century to late Baroque; the mortar’s style features prominent vertical ribs, and the decorative motifs in the interstitial spaces faithfully reproduce the molds of the Baroque almireces used in Spanish kitchens and apothecaries in the 1700s.
The turned handle, with a smooth disc-shaped finial, imitates the standardized forms of the 18th century, originally designed to crush with ease.
