This beautiful hand-crafted wooden mortar and pestle is made from olive wood - known to be one of the hardest woods in the world. Decorative as well as practical this mortar and pestle will grind herbs and spices as well as looking stunning on your kitchen work surface!

Olive wood has a high natural oil content, meaning that it won't take on any smells or colours.  

As a result of this mortar and pestle being hand-crafted the size of the mortar may vary slightly with each product.  Due to the natural colour and grain of olive wood no two pieces are ever the same. The natural oil content of olive wood means that it kills bacteria and is therefore more hygienic than other wood or plastic products. All our olive wood products are finished with wax and oil and so will not taint any food it is in contact with. These hand-made pieces are carved out of a single piece of wood so are rare as well as being unique, beautiful and durable.

All of our olive wood products are ethically produced. Our products are made from the wood of trees which no longer produce fruit, and trees are continually being replanted to replace ones used to produce our products.
