About the Item
This image shows a beautifully hand-carved molcajete, a traditional Mexican mortar and pestle, designed in 2016 by Taller Maya, a collective that works with Mayan artisans in the Yucatán Peninsula. Crafted from volcanic stone, this molcajete is both a functional kitchen tool and a cultural artifact, reflecting centuries-old traditions of grinding spices, herbs, and seeds. The coarse surface of the volcanic rock is ideal for creating richly textured salsas and pastes. The piece represents a commitment to cultural preservation, sustainable practices, and artisan empowerment. Its clean, elegant form is rooted in ancient utility, yet timeless enough to be used in modern kitchens around the world.
