Pestle and Mortar

Postby Dalboy » 09 Jan 2015, 17:53

This was the last piece I turned in 2014

The pestle and mortar are made from Beech

Both are finished with food safe oil.

The design is kept simple in as much as to help with the ease of cleaning and the pestle is designed so that the end user can use it either way round.


Measurements are

Mortar 4 1/2"tall and 4" across, the bowl is 3" deep.
Pestle is 6" long and 1 3/8" at the thickest end and 1" at the narrow end.
