White Carrara Marble Mortar

Yes, the interior of this Carrara marble mortar features a polished finish. While some mortars have a rough, unpolished interior for added friction, this piece relies on the weight and density of the marble to effectively grind your ingredients.

This mortar is not dishwasher safe. To clean it, simply rinse with warm water and a mild soap if necessary, then dry it thoroughly immediately after washing. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers to preserve the polished finish.

Because it is crafted from genuine, natural Carrara marble, the veining pattern will vary from piece to piece. You can expect a unique distribution of grey veining against the white stone, ensuring that your mortar is a one-of-a-kind kitchen tool.

Yes, the 7-inch diameter and the density of genuine Carrara marble provide significant weight, which keeps the mortar stable on your countertop during use. Its substantial build is designed to handle the pressure required for grinding spices and making pesto.
