About the Item
We have for sale a communal mortar from the tribal area of NE India, Nagaland. This piece would have bee used either in a large family home or as a communal piece. It was used specifically to powder rice. It is carved from a single piece of wood and has a nice weight to it. It is a two person lift.
This would be a great coffee table or as a sculptural addition to any room. We do have further pieces from Nagaland. Please see other wider collection or send us a message for details.
The piece does show heavy signs of its use and age, has depths of patina, has small historical repairs. One side is higher than the other so not flat horizontally. The piece has been lightly cleaned and waxed and is presented in good vintage condition.
As with all vintage pieces the pieces will show signs of wear and use. If there is anything that stands out or overly obvious we will clearly say.
This piece was imported to the UK from India and will therefore attract a VAT charge of 20% to UK buyers.
Local, National and International delivery options available. We will always try and find the best value for money and safest way to transport pieces. Crating and boxing service will always be used. We are based in London. You are also welcome to arrange your own collection from us.
Please feel free to ask any questions you may have.
