Forest Decor Mortar and Pestle

Yes, this set is crafted from food-grade olive wood, making it completely safe for crushing herbs, spices, and preparing ingredients like guacamole or pesto.

This set is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the wood, hand wash it with mild soap and warm water, then dry immediately. We recommend occasionally rubbing it with food-safe mineral oil to keep the wood hydrated and prevent cracking.

Olive wood is a dense, non-reactive hardwood, which makes it less prone to absorbing strong odors compared to softer woods. However, like any porous material, it may retain faint traces of very pungent ingredients over time.

Yes, the deep, rounded interior is specifically engineered to keep ingredients contained while you work. It provides enough space to grind effectively without having spices or herbs fly out of the bowl.

Because each piece is hand-carved from genuine olive wood, the grain pattern, color, and texture will vary from set to set. You can expect a unique, one-of-a-kind piece that reflects the natural characteristics of the wood.
