Thai & Laos Kruk Grinding Earthenware Clay Mortar with Palm Wooden Pestle, 8 Inches

Heavy duty, larger than others, requires a bit of seasoning

The weights was perfect not to heavy easy to carry, the quality was great, my first time seeing it made me fell in love with it so beautiful , the size 9 was perfect for me exactly when you have a big family

It’s bigger than I thought, I went by looking at the picture. But when they say 8 or 9 inches it really is that big. Happy with it.

Packaged: it was packaged well even tho the box was delivered with a hole right in the middle which I believe was not the sellers fault but rather from the delivery person. Even with the hole on the side of the box, the item came all intact and not damaged.Item: 1 out of 2 item received is not as pictured. The mortar is more of a grey with a resin cover. The pestle itself is as pictured.Durability: have yet to use this. But I do hope this will hold up long.Overall, even tho I received 1 out of 2 item not as pictured. I’m still content with what I got. Everything else was well packaged. Received a day earlier than expected. Giving this a 4 out of 5 star.

Wifey love it and use it weekly.

The item I received is not the item that is pictured and described. The clay mortar is badly made, there is no glaze on the outside of the bowl, the bottom is very uneven and rocks back and forth on a flat surface. Very disappointing.

Perfect for CRUSHING,mixing and infusing softer ingrediences used in Thai and other asian preparations. DO NOT expect this tool to GRIND hard ingredience like rice or wheat to flour, or toasted whole spices to powder.

Perfect size for home use but chips easily, Shipping is rather costly
