Mortar and Pestle Marble Set Double Sided Pestle for Spices Pestos Seasonings Pastes Guacamole Herb Bowl 2Cup Easy to Clean INCLUDED:Silicone Mat,Brush,Stainless Steel Spoon 4.52in(Large,Black Gray)

We needed to purchase a new mortar and pestle set after our rather old original white marble pestle dropped on the floor and cracked in half (not this company's small version). After plenty of research, we selected the large black mortar and pestle set. It has turned out to be better than expected. Our original mortar had a smaller 4" wide bowl. This new one is wider, very heavy and sturdy and grinds more effectively than our last set due to the matched shape of the pestle to the mortar. We also appreciate the two different sized pestle ends on this new set which not only allows us to adjust grinding depending on our need, but will also allow us to continue to use our smaller mortar with the new pestle when desired.Even the included accessories, while unnecessary, turned out to be more useful than expected. The silicon pad replaces various envelopes and pieces of paper we used to avoid scratching our countertop, and it has the added benefit of holding the mortar steady while grinding. The brush, while seemingly silly and, frankly, cheap, is nice to brush out fine grounds.My only critique would be that because the base of the mortar has no foot, the mortar can be hard to hold when tipping herbs into a pot or bowl. However, this does not diminish the product's usefulness, and it is quite a pretty .Finally, I have to give the company credit for the enclosed "thank you" and the complimentary bookmarks. While this, in no way, affects the mortar and pestle, it was an appreciated touch. They seem to take pride in their products.Having used this set regularly for a few weeks, we can definitely recommend it.

I purchased this mortar and pestle for grinding herbs and spices to fine powder and it does a fantastic job while looking beautiful in my kitchen. The base is solid and heavy so it doesn't move around as I'm using it, the outside is polished and smooth while the inside has a slightly rough unpolished texture to grind against. Both sides of the pestle have a usable unpolished surface also, but are still smooth enough that they're comfortable to hold. The extras included in the box are very useful - a small spoon to scoop out powdered ingredients, a brush to clean out the bowl, and a silicone mat to set the mortar on so that it will not slip on a smooth surface, as well as a bookmark with a sweet note from the seller.I've found that most dried herbs and spices release a much better flavor when they're freshly ground, so this purchase has really improved my cooking and I'm very happy with it!

Perfect combination of quality and sturdiness for price. Seriously would buy again. I love it and the customer service 🥺💕 be prepared for a surprise gift and nose from the seller💕

This is an awesome mortar and pestle set. I was stunned by its beauty and quality. It is the perfect size for grinding larger amounts of spices. I would definitely recommend this product to others. The company also sent a sweet little bookmark set as a thank you.

I was looking for a small mortal and pestle set made of marble for grinding pills to mix in my cat's food. This is a great set. The set includes a small mortar & pestle, a silicone mat, brush, and a stainless steel spoon. I checked many other similar items before ordering this one - and it's just what I needed.

Really nice mortar & pestle. Large enough for bulky dried herbs etc. Pretty enough to be left out on a counter for show.

It's better than I expected it to be! It's heavy and just the right size to handle. The accessories are a nice touch and I look forward to using it regularly. This one is a good little workhorse.
