• Material & Build: Carved from solid, natural Carrara marble featuring distinctive grey veining and an unpolished, textured bowl interior engineered to grip ingredients during grinding.
• Thermal & Cooking Performance: Heavy stone base provides substantial downward force to crush hard spices, seeds, and peppercorns or emulsify garlic and herbs into smooth pastes without shifting on the counter.
• Hardware & Handling: Solid 5-inch cylindrical marble pestle fits comfortably in hand, providing optimal leverage and balanced friction to reduce prep effort and hand fatigue.
• Capacity & Sizing: Mortar measures an exact 2.50"(H) x 4.00"(Dia.) and pestle measures 5.00"(L) x 1.00"(Dia.); sized for fresh guacamole, pesto, curry pastes, dry rubs, and cracked peppercorns.
• Sanitation & Care: Non-porous stone surface resists lingering odors and flavors; hand wash in warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry completely before storing.
