White Marble Mortar Kitchen or Pharmacy Mortar with Wood Pestle White Marble Mortar 7 cm

Description

Functional and refined mortar made with classic Italian white marble with typical gray veins. Durable and elegant material that gives an original and modern look to a tool whose origins are very old. Material preciousness and fluidity of shape blend into a unique and elegant object. The name mortar originates from the Latin vulgar mortarjius, derived in turn from the oldest mortar (make the parts). The need to crush and pulverize some materials by percussion dates back to a remote era and was initially practiced mainly using natural cavities and, then, perhaps even before grinding with the mill, with mortars almost always made of stone. The oldest mortars are made of hard stone (used, for example, by Etruscans and Greeks), marble or alabaster. The Bible also testifies to its ancient use: "The manna was beaten in the mortar to prepare buns." Also available in other colours and sizes. Any imperfections and differences from the picture, are to be considered a guarantee of the uniqueness of the object and the material.
