Skeppshult Cast Iron Mortar & Pestle
Dark. Dense. Powerful. That is the Skeppshult Cast Iron Mortar & Pestle. Handsome. Traditional. Virginal. That too is the Skeppshult Cast Iron Mortar & Pestle.
The burly Swedish herb and spice grinder is handmade from virgin iron ore and walnut wood in Skeppshult's 100-year-old foundry. The design is unique and modern in its cubic shaping and combination of black cast iron and dark wood in a kitchen tool. But it is also classic in its choice of cookware materials, and built to last for decades. Skeppshult even includes a 25-year warranty with the Cast Iron Mortar & Pestle to prove it.
The Skeppshult Mortar & Pestle has a 4.75" x 4.75" footprint, and stands 3.25" tall. It weighs a formidable 8.7 pounds, and would make a great Mother's Day gift for a mom who works out.
