Teak Pestle & Mortar – Large
About this piece
The large Teak Pestle & Mortar is a warm, solid piece of kitchen craft, with a rich, honeyed grain that grows lovelier with every use. Grinding spices, herbs or resins in it is a quietly satisfying ritual, the kind that makes cooking or spell preparation feel intentional.
Teak, Tectona grandis, contains a natural oil that helps make the wood water resistant and protects it from decay, and Javanese teak is considered among the finest in the world. Each set is lovingly made in Balinese villages from carefully managed teak reserves, and with a little care it can last a lifetime. A beautiful gift for a cook, a herbalist or a kitchen witch.
Use it to grind herbs and spices for cooking, crush dried flowers and resins for incense, or blend herbs for spell jars and sachets. Wash by hand in warm water, dry thoroughly and rub with a little food-safe oil now and then to keep the wood looking rich.
