Brass mortar, made in the late 19th century.
A massive mortar that is a replica of 17th-century mortars. Such large mortars were primarily used in the 17th century in pharmacies and monasteries for grinding large quantities of herbs. In the 19th century, these replicas became mainly status symbols in wealthy bourgeois kitchens, although some still found their way into pharmacies.
The presented mortar is richly decorated with relief mascarons, garlands, and the Roman date MDC XXX (1630). It also includes the original matching pestle for grinding, which is likewise heavy and made of brass.
Today, this luxurious mortar can serve as an exceptional decorative and functional piece in your kitchen or professional space.
Dimensions:
25 × 25 × 21 cm – mortar
34 × 5 cm – pestle
Weight: 9,7 kg
