An older heavy solid brass mortar and pestle. I don't know the exact age or maker but the pestle has 97. and 7. on it, which I am showing in the last photo. I don't know what the purpose of those numbers are but want to mention. The mortar is 4 1/4" tall x 4 1/2" wide from tip of each handle.Substantial weight...both pieces together are almost 4 pounds. Wonderful used condition
