Descrizione:
The marble mortar from Macael is an artisanal piece that works as a kitchen utensil, to grind, chop, crush, prepare sauces, etc.
The mortar artisans use to sculpt each piece by hand, with pointer and chisel.
Technique: extraction of white Macael marble from open-cast quarries, selection of the most suitable type, cut the pieces in blocks of different sizes appropriate to the size of mortar. Portions are passed through the vertical milling machine to be emptied, as well as the interior grinding to leave inside and outside a suitable finish for the use to which the mortar will be destined. The “mochetas” (notches) are made and the whole piece is finished with a sanding process
It is made of 100% white marble from Macael, has a medium granulometry and mineralogical composition of 83% calcite, 16% dolomite, 1% muscovite, and minor amounts of clay and opaque.
The well-known marble of Macael is extracted from the quarries of the Almerian town of Macael since the Ancient Age. This marble is highly appreciated and recognized for its purity and beauty.
