Suri-kogi and Suri-bachi are a traditional Japanese pestle and mortar, commonly used for grinding sesame seeds and spices, as well as being used to make a fine paste or dressing. The grinding grooves inside the mortar are shaped by hand and glazed, reducing odours and making it easier to clean. The mortar comes with a silicone base to prevent slipping when in use.
Made entirely by hand in a small earthenware kiln in Japan, the colours of the bowl may vary depending on the batch. Wooden pestle included.
