Mortars and Pestles For Sale on 1stDibs
At 1stDibs, there are several options of mortars and pestles available for sale. Each of these unique mortars and pestles was constructed with extraordinary care, often using metal, wood and stone. Mortars and pestles have long been popular, with older editions for sale from the 18th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 20th Century. Mortars and pestles made by Neoclassical designers — as well as those associated with Baroque — are very popular at 1stDibs. Not every interior allows for large mortars and pestles, so small mortars and pestles measuring 4 inches across are available at 1stDibs. Many mortars and pestles are appealing in their simplicity, but Berber Tribes of Morocco produced popular mortars and pestles that are worth a look.
How Much are Mortars and Pestles?
Mortars and pestles can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $1,200, while the lowest priced sells for $125 and the highest can go for as much as $6,600.
Finding the Right Vases And Vessels for You
For thousands of years, vases and vessels have had meaningful functional value in civilizations all over the world. In Ancient Greece, ceramic vessels were used for transporting water and dry goods, holding bouquets of flowers, for storage and more. Outside of utilitarian use, in cities such as Athens, vases were a medium for artistic expression — pottery was a canvas for artists to illustrate their cultures’ unique people, beliefs and more. And pottery skills were handed down from fathers to sons.
Every antique and vintage vase and vessel, from decorative Italian urns to French 19th-century Louis XVI–style lidded vases, carries with it a rich, layered story.
On 1stDibs, there is a vast array of vases and vessels in a variety of colors, sizes and shapes. Our collection features vessels made from delicate materials such as ceramic and glass as well as durable materials like rustproof metals and stone.
A contemporary vase can help introduce an air of elegance to your minimalist space while an antique Chinese jar would make a luxurious addition to an Asian-inspired interior. Alternatively, if you’re looking for a statement piece, consider an Art Deco vase crafted by Italian architect and furniture designer Gio Ponti.
Vases and vessels — be they handmade pots, handblown glass wine bottles or otherwise — are versatile, practical decorative objects, and no matter your particular design preferences, furniture style or color scheme, they can add beauty and warmth to any home. Find yours on 1stDibs today.
Questions About Mortars and Pestles
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Which stone is the best for a mortar and pestle is largely a matter of personal opinion. Both granite and marble can produce durable sets. Some manufacturers also produce them out of stainless steel. You'll find a collection of antique mortar and pestles on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes. Mortar and pestles, which have been used since the Stone Age, are still used today by cooks, herbalists and pharmacists. The mortar is a bowl made of wood, ceramic, stone, or metal, and the pestle is a club-shaped instrument used to scrape, press and grind ingredients into the desired consistency.
