Vintage Miniature 2" Brass Pestal & Mortar Spice
2" Tall, 2" Across Top
This exquisite piece presents a fine example of an antique brass mortar and pestle, a staple of historical apothecaries and kitchens. Crafted from solid, heavy-gauge brass, its substantial weight and robust construction speak to its enduring quality and utilitarian purpose from a bygone era.
The mortar features a classic form, likely dating to the 18th or 19th century, with a well-proportioned bowl and distinctive square-shaped handles, suggesting a Georgian or early Victorian provenance. The rich, aged patina on both the mortar and its accompanying pestle attests to centuries of use and the natural oxidation process of the brass, adding to its character and historical charm.
The pestle, perfectly matched in material and likely original to the mortar, exhibits a comfortable grip and a well-worn grinding end, hinting at countless hours spent preparing herbs, spices, or medicinal compounds.
