Antique Apothecary Cast Iron Mortar and Pestle c1860

Antique Apothecary Cast Iron Mortar and Pestle from an old chemist shop near Barnard Castle England

Could easily be used in a kitchen for dry herb crushing etc now. 

A unique and very heavy (5.4kg) cast iron Medical and Pharmacy Antique

Barnard Castle is a market town on the north bank of the River Tees, in County Durham, England. The town is named after and built around a medieval castle ruin.

The pestle measures 22cm long and the top of the mortar is 16.5cm in diameter

Slightly rusty and a few casting pit marks but kid you not this is a solid and heavy piece with many many years left in it
