Truly a stunning mortar and pestle, it is more impressive in person than any picture can show! Beautiful grey marble with a natural matte finish. We sell many mortars & pestles, and this model has quickly advanced to the top of my list! Using a mortar & pestle is still considered the best way of releasing the true aromatic flavors of fresh herbs and spices. This smooth marble mortar and pestle is 4.75" wide and 4.50" tall and features a non skid bottom for easier crushing. A great gift for your favorite chef or pharmacist. Pestle is 5.5" long
