Crushing with a mortar and pestle releases the flavor of fresh spices better than chopping with the blade of a food processor. And, it gives you better control over the consistency. This natural grey-green color, sturdy granite (stone) Thai mortar and pestle are widely used in Thai households. It is the highest quality mortar and pestle from Thailand. The handmade mortar is textured inside (and out), aiding the process. The weighty pestle easily ground the spices and powerful enough to turn the mixure into a smooth paste in few minutes. You need not limit its use to Thai or Asian cooking. It works well to make pesto and sauces or any ground mixture. Used this Thai granite mortar and pestle for crushing spices and pulverized the nuts. A wonderful gift...!!! Available in size 5, 6, 7 and 8 Granite Mortar & Pestle

A real bone crusher

Granite to granite equals bone crushing efficiency. You put the slightly course granite structure up against wood or marble and you'll wonder why it took you so long to realize that granite just crushes better. The 8" size is perfect for my wife and I but my mother-in-law likes the 6" better since the weight can be a little tricky to handle going into the sink for a quick wash.

Pound as hard as you like and if it involves peppercorns the fine dust will eminate throughout the area causing many to sneeze. It's that efficient. (Never happened with the wood unit.)

It looks very impressive and almost imposing depending upon the size of your counter. The inner surface is slightly polished with the exterior unpolished and looking like it was carved out of a piece of solid granite (which it was). The lip is over 1 inch thick and the little knobby grips are barely useable.

I don't know how much native granite Thailand has left, so you might want to grab one while they're still available.

Good - does the job

Larger than I expected, and heavy too. Very robust - the postman dropped it on the way to our door without damage, although I don't think they were too amused at having to bring it to our door.
Does the trick though, and its large capacity stops overflow.
