Chinese Porcelain Mortar and Pestle Set 60mm

Refine your prep with precise, traditional grinding.

This Chinese style porcelain mortar and pestle set is designed for controlled, small-batch grinding of spices, herbs, and other fine ingredients. Crafted from dense, glazed porcelain, the interior surface is smooth yet effective for crushing, while resisting staining and absorbing odors. The exterior base of the mortar is left unglazed to provide a stable, non-slip contact with your work surface during use.

Ideal for chefs, home cooks, and formulators working with small quantities, this compact 60 mm mortar offers accurate handling for tasks such as grinding whole spices, mashing garlic or ginger, preparing seasoning pastes, or mixing powdered ingredients. A practical pouring lip allows you to transfer ground contents cleanly into bowls, pans, or containers, reducing waste and mess. The pestle is shaped for a comfortable, secure grip, giving you better control and consistent results with minimal effort. The non-porous porcelain surface cleans easily with warm water and mild detergent.
