Hand carved from solid stone, each piece has developed a wonderfully aged surface and organic texture through decades of everyday use, resulting in rich tonal variation and authentic timeworn character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"837\" data-start=\"524\"\u003eToday, these primitive vessels make striking decorative objects within modern rustic, wabi-sabi and organic interiors. Their sculptural form and tactile surface make them ideal as tabletop styling pieces, rustic planters, candle holders or decorative bowls for open shelving, kitchen islands and console displays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1123\" data-start=\"839\"\u003eEach mortar is entirely unique, with subtle differences in colour, shape, texture and proportions reflecting its handmade nature and historic use. The heavily worn finish, softened edges and aged patina are all part of the charm and authenticity of these one-of-a-kind antique pieces.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-end=\"1123\" data-start=\"839\"\u003eVariations\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that each antique and vintage item is unique.
