The Olive Wood Mortar & Pestle is best-selling for that reason! Carved from the same wood block, the mortars & pestles are seamless and vividly display the unique patterns found in the wood grain.
SIZE: Small is approximately 4" wide, Large is 5.5" wide. Each one is hand carved so no two are the same.

Now, the brothers and their families have cultivated and perfected this art. They produce beautiful pieces displaying the trees’ natural swirling patterns in their unique grain. Each piece is sustainable as they are made from non-productive olive trees. Choose to fill your home with beautiful artwork while supporting small artisans.
