About the Item

An antique, reclaimed mortar bowl hand-carved from limestone in the 18th century. Its rounded form and carved rim give it a strong presence, while the surface carries the texture of time — worn edges, weathered patina, and subtle marks of use. Once utilitarian, it can now serve as a vessel for bedding florals or stand alone as a sculptural object with enduring character.
