Mortar and Pestle

This small, white porcelain mortar and pestle set is made from sturdy ironstone and features an unmarked design. The mortar measures approximately 3 inches in diameter and includes a built-in rest for the pestle, making it a functional and charming addition to any kitchen or apothecary collection.

This set is in very good vintage condition. No damage was noted though there is a tan coating on the base (please see pics) which appears to be paint. 

These are vintage items which have a rich history. While I do my best to provide an accurate description, please closely review the photos to admire these items and review their unique history and idiosyncrasies.
