Antique Stone Khal Batta (Sil Batta / Mortar & Pestle) – 100+ Years Old, Large Size

Presenting a magnificent piece of traditional Indian kitchen heritage – an authentic, large-sized Khal Batta (mortar & pestle) made from solid hand-carved stone and aged over 100+ years. This timeless tool was used in rural and haveli kitchens to crush, grind, and mix spices, herbs, and chutneys by hand — before the age of electric mixers.

Its natural grey stone surface, ergonomic hand-crafted form, and beautifully worn edges tell stories of generations gone by. The deep bowl holds spices securely while the heavy pestle ensures effective pounding with minimal effort. Even today, many believe that the aroma and flavor of spices ground in stone are far superior.

This is more than a kitchen utility — it’s a piece of culinary history.
