Beautiful and better
September 23, 2008 shopcheffrom Talent,OR
"I have used other kinds and this is the one to have! I had a china one(too light) marble (too smooth)etched glass (better,but still a little too smooth) and a molcajete (too rough). I feel like Goldilocks...this one's just right. Makes pesto so much creamier than a food processor and great for spices.And it's beautiful.It's on proud display on a shelf and gets lovingly petted often."

Unbelievable Quality- Great Buy!
September 22, 2008 sawainerfrom Clemmons, NC
"I bought this for my husband who has cooked all of his life and is very choosy about his kitchen equipment. He is so pleased, It is a beautiful piece and is plenty big enough for whatever he happens to be making at the time. The interior allows you to create the perfect grind in no time and it cleans up easily. Five star rating for sure!"

Better than expected!
March 16, 2008 Kris11from APO, AE (Military)
"I can't believe the quality at the price offered! It is absolutely beautiful! It is heavy, solid, easy to clean, and works exactly as advertised. Someone else mentioned how it looks like art, that's very true. I have it proudly displayed on my counter."

GREAT TOOL!!
February 12, 2008 PatrickBfrom Washington, DC
"This mortar and pestle is great!! A must have for any serious kitchen. The granite is perfect; not as course as a molcajete but more rough than the marble used in some mortars. You can take herbs and spices from course ground to straight up pulverized in no time. Looks great on the counter too!"

Art ?
October 19, 2007 Carltonfrom Boston, South Shore
"Is this a kitchen tool or kitchen art ? It is great for grinding spices for salad dressings. On my counter it is quite the conversation piece for my guests. I have been asked more than once if it is a sculpture."
