When I saw this mortar and pestle in @brimfield.an When I saw this mortar and pestle in @brimfield.antique.flea.market in Brimfield, MA, I couldn’t resist to get it. My mother had a similar khal (that’s what it is called in Gujarati) and I had a memories of making masala and chutney in that khal. It was lost some years ago, the one I got in flea market will be a good reminder of the lost one.
