The pestle and mortar are made from Beech

Both are finished with food safe oil.

The design is kept simple in as much as to help with the ease of cleaning and the pestle is designed so that the end user can use it either way round.


Measurements are

Mortar 4 1/2"tall and 4" across, the bowl is 3" deep.
Pestle is 6" long and 1 3/8" at the thickest end and 1" at the narrow end.

Derek so small and well made mate ideal for the busy kitchen handy to find a spot for bit as well Ideal for breaking down easily so many herbs and spices where a little goes a long way. A great project for everyone of us to win points at the table with SWMBO.
