This weighty block of marble and brass is used to smash, pummel and grind spices and herbs, a primal and deeply pleasurable exercise. Its exaggerated rounded lip allows a firm grip as you work. The grinder's strikingly modern, almost abstract design makes a beautiful addition to the home, as a practical piece to be treasured for years to come.
