Functional art for your kitchen. We were so impressed by the beauty and functionality of this marble Mortar and Pestle we just had to offer it to you. The smooth inner surface is ideal for crushing and grinding spices, herbs, and nuts as well as processing chopped shrimp, chicken, or tofu into coarse pastes. A work of art worthy of any kitchen. Mortar measures 2 1/2 inches deep and 4 1/2 inches across.
