Both the pestle & mortar have been ergonomically designed to bring the user the benefits of fresh ground spices with total ease and pleasure.

The Form – The unique organic form of the mortar comprises an undercut at the rim to retain those hard spices from bouncing out.  The Lip – Besides adding style and charm to the mortar, the lip allows the ground material to be easily removed from the undercut of the mortar.  The Radii – The key to grinding it fine is ensuring the radii of the grinding surfaces match – so the radius of the end of the pestle should match the radius of the base of the mortar – but it’s amazing how many pestle & mortars we found where this has been completely ignored (or not understood!).  This can be tested by seeing how easily the pestle will stand upright in the mortar.  The Rough and the Smooth – While the outer surfaces have been polished to provide a lustrous effect, the inner face of the mortar and the end of the pestle have a shot-blasted finish to provide a course abrasive plane.  The Weight – Stable and sturdy – this pestle and mortar will do all the work for you by using the weight behind the pestle against the solid mortar bowl which grips the work surface with its rubber base to prevent scratching and slipping.  In the palm of your hand – The rounded end of the pestle comfortably sits within the palm of your hand to prevent discomfort whilst grinding.  ART – Besides all of the ergonomic design benefits listed here – above all the Gaudi inspired pestle and mortar will be the focal point of your kitchen, and will look fantastic as a unique and original piece of functional ART.  Recipes – Visit our Recipe page to find some mouth watering and explosive spice and herb formulas, specifically designed by us for use in our fantastic pestle & mortar.
