Olive Wood Pestle and Mortar – Handcrafted Kitchen Set (4 Sizes) | Verdant Grain

Our handcrafted olive wood pestle and mortar set comes in four different sizes, making it easy to find the perfect fit for your kitchen tasks. If you mostly grind small amounts of spices or herbs, the smallest size is ideal. For larger quantities, like making pesto or guacamole, consider the medium or large sizes. Our largest option is great if you frequently cook for a crowd or want more versatility. If you’re unsure, check the product dimensions on our size chart—each is handcrafted so sizing is approximate. Need personal advice? Feel free to contact us and we’ll help you select the right kitchen tool for your needs!

To keep your handcrafted olive wood pestle and mortar in top condition, simply wash it with warm water and mild soap after each use, then dry it thoroughly with a towel. Avoid soaking it in water or placing it in a dishwasher, as this can damage the wood. For added durability and a gorgeous sheen, occasionally rub it with a little food-safe mineral or olive oil. This helps maintain the natural grain and prevents drying or cracking. With proper care, your olive wood kitchen tool will stay beautiful and functional for years to come!

Absolutely! Each pestle and mortar set is handcrafted from sustainably sourced olive wood, known for its strength and dense grain. Olive wood is naturally durable and resistant to odors and stains, making it an excellent choice for grinding herbs, spices, garlic, or even making sauces like pesto. The smooth, solid construction stands up to daily use without chipping or cracking. Plus, every piece is unique thanks to the beautiful wood grain, so you’re getting a practical kitchen tool that’s also a work of art!
