Antique Brass Pestle & Mortar, Small Bell-Shaped Apothecary Style 8.5cm Tall.

A small antique brass mortar and pestle, of traditional bell-shaped/waisted form with a flared rim, ribbed collar and a stepped, moulded circular foot. The pestle has a classic double-ended baluster shape with a flat grinding end and a flattened disc handle. It is apothecary-style but can be easily used in the kitchen.

The mortar has a warm golden patina with the fine, cobweb-like surface crazing, a sign of age and wear rather than damage. This has been left untouched to preserve its history.

A lovely decorative piece with genuine age and character. Would suit a kitchen, apothecary or pharmacy-themed display.

Dimensions:
• Mortar height: approx. 8.5cm / 3.3"

Condition: Antique. There is an old crack/repair to the rim of the mortar and fine surface crazing to the patina consistent with age. No other chips, dents, or losses noted. Sold as seen - please review all photos as part of the description.
