A rare eighteenth-century / early nineteenth century wooden mortar and pestle set from France, perhaps the Sevigne region. The double-head pestle is made of boxwood and the mortar bowl is made of chestnut wood. A staple accessory in French kitchens, particularly for preparing pistou (like pesto). It would be a lovely piece to display on the kitchen counter for an instant touch of French country.
