Turned Grey Marble Mortar & Pestel Set

Description

A kitchen must-have, this highly functional marble mortar and pestle set has been crafted by artisans using the stone turning technique. Traditional meets contemporary in this unique, masterfully crafted offering that has been sculpted from polished marble. The craft of hand turning dates back eons. A skilled artisan fixes a rough-hewn circular block of marble at the head of the traditional lathe machine and hammers it in place by hand. The machine begins whirring as the artisan introduces a hand-held chisel to the block, and applies varying degrees of pressure to sculpt the desired shape and to smoothen the edges
