Antique rustic wooden mortar | Roshi

Description

Antique rustic wooden mortar | Roshi- Large primitive wooden mortar

Our stunning antique rustic wooden mortar | Roshi is made from a single piece of elm tree trunk.

Formerly this unique and very heavy item would have been used with a large wooden pestle to grind and mill grain within it’s hollow bowl shaped centre.

The patina of the wood is particularly beautiful and worn smooth with the passage of time … this item is over 100 years old.

The character of this timber is beautiful and its surfaces are tactile and full of rustic character cracks and makers marks.

Each of our primitive looking mortars looks absolutely fantastic empty as a stand alone item but could equally be used to make a strikingly minimal floral arrangement.

Made from solid elm.

Woodworm holes are present in all our historic items, all item are fully treated.
